| TO HS.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} FROM R.{Sir Henry Royce} 7-EX. ORIGINAL R1/M24.11.26. X8600 X8992 X235 If possible will you fit one of the spare wheel carriers at the back, for when there is no luggage, correct auto advance, and possibly a still slower worm or hydraulic damper. If this latter is not ready could it be prepared for one? The speedometer drive is unsteady: is it correct for these tyres? Is the lean of the axle the same as 8-EX? R.{Sir Henry Royce} | ||
