MYTH
Steering Column.

We attach to Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/HH's copy the original of

PL.655 - Steering Column Support on Scuttle.

The above scheme shows a method of anchoring the steering column to the body on the scuttle. The tie bars are the same as used on the Lt.Hd.{Mr Hayward/Mr Huddy} Silver Wraith 80. We have shewn a method of attachment to the scuttle, but it must not be regarded as final. We expect Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/EAG. to produce this fixing to suit the scuttle design.
