To DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}/EV.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} from Da.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} X7600 At Derby. Dal/LGL.3.29. X7380 At a conference here today, it was decided that they wanted the side wheel carrier urgently. Could you please get on with this assuming that the engine foot will be something like the present design. The other urgent thing, which I think you are already on with, is the detachable cross member in the front. It looks as though I should be here until sometime next week.
