| - 2 - Wraith wheel movements. Hardy Spicer Prop. Shaft to replace RR. Type. Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} stated 25% added to cost to cover this contingency. Modification to Rear Axle and Hub. G.CD.668. Detailed cost figures to be got out. Oil Feed to Exhaust System Suspension Links. E.CD.592. We must, however, clear up certain outstanding work in connection with Wraith arrangements and the Bentley programme. The major items for engine alteration and application of Wraith wheel movement are completed. The D.O. will clear the details for the above designs by the end of August. This should enable us to get the parts made and tested in time to incorporate the new features at the 1st. chassis in 'E' series. BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} | ||
