Dear Sirs, We wish to test a set of your spring covers on one of our Experimental Cars. We should like these to be fitted as nicely as possible so as to give them every chance. The doubtful point we have in our minds is, how long it is before these covers begin to look untidy and shabby. Will you please let us know what measurements you require of the springs, or if you like, we would send you a set of springs so that you can fit the covers at your Works. Will you also please let us know the cost. The springs will be semi-eliptic front cantilever for the rear. Yours faithfully, | ||
