F Dood BENTLEY V.{VIENNA} 50 SETS. Herewith D.CD.1185 shewing the revised shape of rear lamp bracket. It is intended to shape the bracket to fit the helmet of the wing. Will Ev.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} please arrange for us to have a sample piece of wing. This method of attachment is chosen because each half of the wing is to be a pressing and to provide a boss would be inconvenient. Ille DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} | ||
