BENTLEY 111.
DASHBOARD AND BODY BRACKETS.
Please receive herewith the following scheme
F.CD.552 Dashboard Mounting on Frame.
The above scheme shews the sheet metal dashboard attached to the frame by a Floatex mounting.
It is hoped that when the dashboard is bolted to the body it will not be necessary to fit the front end Floatex body mounting.
This is required for Bentley 50 first car.
