To RHC.{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} X 350 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/PJH.9/KW.4.5.36. 33-EX. Will you please urge the parts necessary for bringing the front suspension and steering levers of the above car up-to-date as we wish to do steering tests on this car. The present combination of up-to-date centre lever and old carrier plate levers gives a high geared steering which is unsuitable for our tests. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/F.J.Hardy. | ||
