Thanks for Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rn.{Mr Robinson}3/WJ.9.10.30. Just before I went over to Paris I asked JLE.{J. Lee Evans - Chassis Test Manager} to try the car. I gave him a copy of your note saying what you had done but did not give him any of my own views in regard to the result. I enclose original of his report which I thought you might like to see. Please return it after perusal. I note that you expect to have some other front springs in about 10 days' time. I can of course easily wait for them but do you really want the car to come to Derby for the change or can it be made at N?. Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} Enc. LR{Mr Ellor}6/R/4.10.30. | ||
