| To RHC.{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} From Ha/Les.{Ivan A. Leslie} *7960. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Les.8/MJ.6.10.31. 58-GN. Both levers have worked loose on their serrations on the front shock dampers. As we wish to investigate this complaint, we should like the shafts and levers replaced by new ones and the worn ones fitted to the dampers on the bumper. We should like the cross steering tube checked for poundage and put to standard. The bonnet has never been fitted to this car. When the radiator has been altered we should like .025" clearance at the radiator and .050" at the dash. The bonnet locks have been fouling badly - we should like this rectified.
