X7772 By.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} from Da.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} c. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} Oy. c. Da{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}/EV{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} (WW) Da{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}7/G28.3.30. L.H. PHANTOM II FOR R.R.A.I. Referring to the question of the gear and brake levers and the instrument board on the above chassis, we have gone into the question with Oy. and indicate on the sketch herewith (in red) the dimensions agreed upon for the position of gear lever, brake lever and depth of instrument board. The latter is of the "strung out" type and has no "patch". Particulars will follow later. We suggest that the sketch should be given a Derby scheme number for purpose of record (as we are rather short of N. scheme numbers here). Da.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} | ||
