| Top Title: STANDARDISATION of CHASSIS PARTS. [Main table content is largely illegible.] FN's Remarks :-- I agree with the incorporated shutters but am alarmed at suggestion of less efficiency. I should like to know whether results of top gear hill climbing, or equivalent, are of a nature to encourage an owner to take his 20 HP. car over Alpine Passes. FN. 9.4.24. Distribution List: MR.
