John Ferguson doesn't seem to have had many cutaway drawings published, but here's another one of his of the Ariel Square Four from 1938:

I suppose i the 30s drawn large scale and reduced and plates printed by some photo process.

The Big 7 with flexible open chassis, mechanical brakes, and friction s.as. looks a bit basic cf the rival Morris 8. Has anyone compared? The Morris I rode in had a very pitchy motion, effectively  remedied in the very pleasant series E
