| DY{F R Danby}/NS.{Norman Scott} c. Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} BENTLEY 111 - EXHAUST SYSTEM. Herewith please receive E.CD.222 Expansion Box Front Stays - Bentley 111. Exhaust fittings. Will you please detail and instruct experimentally the necessary parts. We have called for the vertical stay to be produced from steel tubing flattened at ends, as we understand the corresponding part on the Wraith lll car tended to buckle owing to its length. The fixing for stays both on crankcase and on the expansion box is the same as for Wraith lll. DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} | ||
