Re. 20-G-IV.

We see from Hn. {F. C. Honeyman - Retail orders} 16/I/21.3.34 that you wish to change over the experimental features from C's car to GAW-3.

We see no reason why the parts removed from GAW-3 when fitting the vacuum clutch should not be fitted to 20-G-IV, the latter then becoming a standard car.

This applies also to the carburetter air valve, since 20-G-IV is at the moment fitted with the latest type carburetter and air silencer, and there will therefore be no need for us to send any parts to N.
