Bailey - Chief Engineer} 111 S Da{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}/Ev.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork}10/N.22.12.37. Re: Body Weights. It is essential that we should have in this office a record of the weight analysis of all the experimental cars, such as you gave to us for P.III and B.2. but which we have received only for Wraith III - records of 24-G-VI. and 25-G.VI. A weight analysis sheet like your Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/FD.{Frank Dodd - Bodies}1/JH. 10.4.37 for 25-G-VI. is all we require, but it would assist us if you could add a front and rear axle weight for the complete car. We need information on the following cars:- 26-G-VI. 27-G-VI. 28-G-VI. 29-G-VI. 39-EX. 5.B.4. (Coupe). Da{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}/Ev.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} | ||
