BENTLEY 111. FRAME.
Please receive attached blueprint
F.CD.10 Starting Handle and Front Bumper Bearing.
The above print shows the alterations necessary to bring the front end in line with the dropped frame to F.CD.139.
It is noticed that the gusset has been turned round with the flanges outwards. This necessitates the bumper fixing being brought in .125 each side, otherwise the scheme is unaltered. Should suggest we have this print traced under another number for record purposes.
Print will follow later By NS.{Norman Scott}
