Bailey - Chief Engineer} Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} x235 E.4/HP.13.12.35. Bentley Pedals. In connection with the revised Bentley, I think we ought to allow more room for the Bentley pedals sideways and more room if possible generally for the driver's feet. With the wider dashboard there is some opportunity for carrying this out and I believe that such an improvement is desirable. E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} | ||
