Sidgreaves - MD} WOR.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} C. to HS.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} J.{Mr Johnson W.M.} 3. REAR AXLE. DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}1/M24.2.32. X.5350 On setting out the coachwork we found that the ventilated filler plug on the rear axle is rather tall, and bumps into the cushion more than seems necessary. We therefore send N.sch.3439. shewing a suggestion for reducing the height. DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} | ||
