| TO BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} FROM DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}/EV.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} Copy to - BJ. HS.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} V8600 ORIGINAL DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}/EV{Ivan Evernden - coachwork}1/M7.5.27. re. 7-EX. REAR WHEEL CARRIER. V8600 We send herewith N. sch. 2411. shewing a means of repairing the central plate of the rear wheel carrier on 7-EX. which is at WW. Mr. Royce would like you to send us down the plate with added bosses as soon as possible, together with the tube lug, and the necessary bolts, etc, so that we can fit the pieces up ourselves. The hole for the main bolt in the fixing lug should be left for drilling in position with the plate. As we believe Mr. Royce would like to have this put right quickly, could HS.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} arrange to bring the pieces to WW. when he comes on Thursday next. We have sent the central plate direct to HS.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} under separate cover. DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}/EV.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} | ||
