X5410 EXTRACT FROM : R.{Sir Henry Royce} FROM DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}+ DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}1/M6.12.32. WORK IN PROGRESS - 6.12.32. 57410 INDEPENDENT WHEEL SUSPENSION. A fair amount of progress on your scheme was made some time ago, and recently we have done some more in our spare time. It seems to be coming out quite well. We are now going to make a picture for patent purposes, and also to illustrate the scheme to those interested. The main drawings should then not take long to complete sufficiently far for Derby to rig up an experiment. DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} | ||
