We want the latest Woodhead road springs fitted to the above car before it leaves for France. We understand that these springs are drilled and grooved for Bijur lubrication. In order to bring them into line with the Firths springs we should like them Cadmium plated. We presumed that this can be done in the Works. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/I.A.Leslie. | ||
