| R.R. 63 (copy T)(S.H.16. 21-6-00.) Bm. 2/127/25. COPY. Madrid. November 5th 1921 SaAo/Al/15 To C.J. (London) from Sa. My dear C.J., I have heard many complaints lately from clients that their engine gets too hot, the water boiling when going uphill and this occurs with the chassis lately received from Londaiz to Marques de Linares. As the complaint is general, I thought it best to let you know so that you may ask 'W' to look into the matter and see if a remedy can be found not only for the chassis delivered but also for future chassis. Marques de Linares has been the last client to complain, and he also says the springs in his chassis 63-GE yield right down getting thus the frame in contact with the rubber buffers. I shall be glad to hear from you on these points. Yours ever, (Sgd) Carlos. Sa. | ||
