| -3- EP {G. Eric Platford - Chief Quality Engineer} 6/MH. {M. Huckerby} 21.1.35 (13) The springing rather represents our 25 H.P. model with L.R.springs. The rear of the car pitches rather badly over uneven-surface roads; at the same time, there appears to be a certain amount of looseness in connection with the axle controls, as over pot-hole roads certain rattles take place. (14) The synchro-mesh action is rather disappointing, and changing from top to second at fairly high car speeds becomes jammed [strikethrough]. [Handwritten:] gears will not engage. EP {G.
