Da.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/AFM.{Anthony F. Martindale}1/MH.{M. Huckerby}10.5.39. SPARE WHEEL CARRIER & STARTING HANDLE BRACKET - WRAITH 80. The starting handle bracket for the bent front pan and the spare wheel carrier for all the new cars are rather complicated and could be simplified by welding. Will you please see what can be done on the lines we discussed, and prepare a scheme of each. Two sets of each should be instructed. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/AFM.{Anthony F.
