RADIATOR JELLYING.

Of the various schemes which have been got out
by Da.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} and Ev.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} curing this trouble, the one we are most
anxious to try is that of single point body mounting at
the rear.

We do not suggest that the other schemes are not
promising but our tests up to date lead us to expect the
greatest improvements from the body mounting.

We should therefore be obliged if you can let
us have the sketches to work to as soon as possible.
