Handwritten: GRY.{Shadwell Grylls} x7960. see my Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} Typed: S/W Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}..from C. Cll/Cl.1.34 I have been able to give the clutch on 20-G4 a good deal of testing in traffic, and I think the scheme you have fitted for lightening the pressure is most satisfactory in effect - it very appreciably reduces the fatigue when driving in heavy London traffic. The air silencer is also a great improvement, and the braking is noticeably better. Were there any other items you put on this car that you want me to watch? C. | ||
