CHASSIS WIRING, GOSHAWK. X4075

In R1/M20922 R, makes the following remark;
"I agree that the Simplex joints and tubing are unsuitable for chassis work, and I recommend for trial pieces of straight tube for carrying the wiring in the chassis frame with no tee or elbow joints, but beaded or slightly bell mouthed ends to the tube"

Would you kindly arrange to get out a set of tubes in conformity with this proposal and submit them to Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}, for experiment.

BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer}
