On 28-EX. the exhaust nozzle is bolted on to the rear end of the exhaust pipe, and we should like to have some advance information from GWH.{George W. Hancock - Head Chateauroux} as to whether he has found any disability with same, as Sales Dept. are anxious to have this scheme on the 20/25 HP. as well as the 40/50 HP. chassis. The object of the scheme is to enable the Coachbuilders to cut off the exhaust pipe to the required length to suit the variations in the Coachwork at the rear end, and to bolt on the nozzle to suit.
