Re MYTH PROJECT.

We herewith confirm having handed to Ev{Ivan Evernden - coachwork}/JD.{J. Draper - Frames} blue print No.RB.{R. Bowen}18006 - Layout showing suggested Front Seat with modified Change Speed and Brake Lever positions.

This arrangement should provide for a seat equivalent to the sample seat already tried out in 9-B-V and, by introducing a recessed door inside panel, also gives ample room for operating the Change Speed and Brake Controls.

Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} has already seen and approved of this scheme prior to the issue of the above print.
