104th Meeting
Dec.27th.11. Re Protecting tube for Petrol Tank

This scheme has been abandoned for the time being in favour of an alternative design suggested by Mr Spinney in which the petrol tank is supported inside the chassis, close to one of the side members.

Mr Barrington informed the Committee that Mr Spinney has not yet been able to give this alternative design his attention.
