[This line is struck through in red] 746 Ev{Ivan Evernden - coachwork}/DB.{Donald Bastow - Suspensions}2/ET.6.12.40. 1030 FRONT SUSPENSION MYTH. --------------------- PL.420, attached to this memo, shows the bump and rebound buffers for the Myth front suspension. The rubber buffers are carried on a pressing spot welded to and projecting from the front pan. Both buffers are moulded to plates with bolts whose stems project for attaching the buffers and the carrier pressing. The carrier pressing may be made in two halves welded to-gether if it is found to be too difficult to press in one. None of the parts are handed.
