Re Vulture
Has this car got hand overriding control to the shock absorbers, & if so. is the control on the column or on the instrument board.
If it is on the instrument board we shall have to cater for it.
Would you please send me a wire tomorrow to Conduit St, before lunchtime, as the instrument board is held up to some extent for this feature.
I hope to come up to Derby on Thursday morning & see how the wings are going on.

LES See me
