| Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} +4613 DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}1/M21.6.28. SUPPORT OF STEERING COLUMN WITH CAST DASH. 2 X. 7430 X. 7500 X. 4613 We thank you for your Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}5/LG18.6.28. It would appear from this that the use of 2 bolts only at the top for the scuttle semi isolation would be satisfactory, the steering column being sufficiently steadied by the cast dash.
