| - 5 - Exhaust cut-out. We have had no further trouble with this - see my previous report re the exhaust opening. General examination underneath the car. Tie rod brackets, diagonal stays and brackets, rear spring main bearing supports, equalising shafts and brackets, bearings on intermediate shafts of servo - these are all in a sound condition from an outside examination. We have replaced two iron supports to accumulator box. Window in door (driver's side) broken. Windscreen is becoming loose. Scuttle dash cracked at top of bend on O.S. Rear section of hinge, top of bonnet, dashboard end, broken. Front wings spare wheel wells are breaking away. Spare wheel brackets are O.K. Electrical fittings. x8800 x8780 Electrical fittings generally are O.K. We are having an epidemic of the rear single point contact bulbs breaking their filaments. I think that the rear lamp fitting is not as good as the old type double contact. G.W.Hancock. | ||
