XL4553 BRAKES - PEREGRINE(Experimental Bentley car never produced / Aero Engine) & BENSPORT(Codename for 3 1/2-litre Bentley). We think that N.Sch.3717 should overcome the trouble of inefficient brakes due to wet roads, repeatedly met with by GWH {George W. Hancock - Head Chateauroux} in France. Will you please detail this scheme for us to try on Bensport(Codename for 3 1/2-litre Bentley). Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Gry. {Shadwell Grylls} | ||
