| X3357. Extract from EY6/P291118. X.3441 X.3357. RE 1000 45/50 H.P. CHASSIS. (7A) STUB AXLE. The design of the above part has been modified to the new type which you designed after the breakdown on the Duke of Westminster's car - all new stub axles will therefore have this improvement in design. With reference to the question of the radius on the corner, I have had a specialnote added to the drawing, to the effect that the radius must be absolutely free from circular scratches. | ||
