| -4- HS.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}1/WL.25.9.30. Contd. clutch. We propose, however, to take out with us the necessary parts so that if for any reason the clutch fails we can change over to the American type. (5) Special arrangement of the floorboards round the change speed and brake levers to prevent hot air getting into the body. (6) Latest instrument board arrangement. (7) An all-black steering wheel. This has been standardised for both cars. (8) Carburetter with air cleaner. Certain modifications have been made to this since it ran 10,000 miles on 24-EX. The proposal is to standardise it for both cars. HS.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} | ||
