Project Bullet update
31 July 1974
Project Bullet - Minutes from the Jaguar and Rover Triumph Advisory Board
John Lloyd , Triumph Technical Director reported that "some re-testing of Bullet may be necessary as the cars had failed to meet Federal regulations when tested in Detroit although they had been satisfactory in Coventry."
He was hopeful that the 're-set' vehicles would satisfy but if not re-testing or re-specification may be necessary which could delay matters by five months . The results would be known in about seven days .
