We send you herewith the following drawings:- LeC.4004 - The perforations and stiffeners for the radiator grille. LeC.4005 - Top water connections, and the remaining information to complete the top tank of the radiator. LeC.4006 - Radiator frame crossmember. LeC.4007 - Starting handle dog and outboard bearing carried on the wheelcase. LeC.4009 - Modified hand throttle bracket. This cancels the previous design of LeC.4000 and marked "Section KK". The reason for altering this is because the original bracket could not be bolted down squarely to the frame, as there is a kink at this point. LeC.4010 - Starting handle and bracket. Also the fixing of the front number plate and support for the horns. LeC.4013 - Cover for the starting handle hole in the grille. E/JNH. | ||
