E.R. Hall's Chassis.

Will you please fit the T.T. rear axle gears, i.e., 11/41, back in the axle of this car.

Will you also please examine the keys and taper on the pinion of the Shelsley axle to see if there are any signs of failure, since this car has done a number of very violent starts.

With regard to the cylinder head, the Shelsley head has now been returned and the valve gear requires changing over from this head to the T.T. head, which shall then be returned to the Repair Dept. for re-fitting.
