re: Chassis-114-WJ-Mr. Pereire

I have just examined the engine coupling
of this car which has run 2.000 kms. The fabric disc has
splayed very badly, and should be changed. Have you had
similar case ? You know what I mean by splaying disintegrated
perhaps is a better word.

Will you kindly send us 2 or 3 couplings and
say 21 new bolts and nuts ( castle nuts) with conic heads to
modify these couplings I spoke about in my memo concerning 35-WJ.

Ps.
