| 79 x300 To G.W. Hancock Esq., Hotel de France, Chateauroux(French test region), Indre, FRANCE. Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Gry. {Shadwell Grylls} 22/KW.19.6.36. With regard to your memo. on 32-EX hand brake adjustment, do we gather that 32-EX was not equipped with a 5/8" spanner ? The L.O.P. of the tools carried on the car shows both a 5/8" jaw spanner and a 5/8" box spanner. Possibly it is for some other reason, such as that the length of the 11/16" is more suitable, that you want the size of the nut increased, but we should like to make sure that it is not merely because the spanner is missing.
