| To SRN. from E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} Copy to CJ. " " BN.{W.O. Bentley / Mr Barrington} " " EH. X 3317 RE "BUICK" STEERING BOX. E4/G15/10/19. Can you supply us with a picture shewing the construction of the Buick steering box ? I do not remember having seen any particulars published, but perhaps you have the necessary information in your records. The particular steering box we have at West WitteringHenry Royce's home town is fitted with a quick and easy adjustment for taking up all slack in the box, and is probably of the usual two nut type.
