Hall's Car.

Attached is a list of the nuts we are likely to want to undo on Hall's car. These should be locked in a temporary manner. All the other nuts can be locked permanently.

The wing nut lift on Hall's car is too much. We will instruct the correct lift when we have a chance to work on the car to find out what it should be.

Will you please fit standard lining to the servo, the roasted lining instructed is no good.

With regard to the spare wheel carriers, we are obtaining some road racing tyres 5 1/2" and 5 1/4" section. The carrier will have to be made so that either wheel can be utilised.
