THERMOSTATICALLY OPERATED RADIATOR SHUTTERS. 58-GN. is rather an old P.II car and is not fitted with thermostatically operated shutters. There is therefore no possibility of a spring being fitted unless it is decided to convert the shutters from hand to thermostatic operation. This is rather a big job and would have to be done in Derby. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/A.J.Lidsey. | ||
