24.G.Vl. {V. Lewis / Mr Valentine}

Whilst you have the above car in the fitting shop will you please build up and fit a standard centre silencer, rear silencer and tail pipe. The centre silencer should be made with one end detachable for any mods. to be made if necessary. We should like these parts if possible, to be fitted, so that they are interchangeable with the parts at present on the chassis for comparative purposes.
