x560 [REDACTED] from Mx.{John H Maddocks - Chief Proving Officer} Mx{John H Maddocks - Chief Proving Officer}8/T9.4.35. GSF-4. 20/25HP TRIALS CAR. RE.OIL LEAKING FROM BOTTOM OF STEERING PIVOT. With reference to your BY2/G8.4.35, the modification you refer to of stiffening the lower cap which came on with the first chassis in "G" Series would of course not be applied to GSF-4, as it is an 'F' Series Chassis. However, in view of the complaint we are fitting the stiffer type caps to this car. Mx{John H Maddocks - Chief Proving Officer} | ||
