| - 2 - Cx {Major Len W. Cox - Advertising Manager} 2/KW27.2.35. Cast iron ribbed brake drums O series. 2.750 diameter propeller shaft N2 " S/m gearbox N2 " Diamond engine mounting N2 " Wider brake shoes N2 " Higher radiator and dash N2 " 60" rear track N2 " We find it difficult without this information to explain to people that whereas the car may have been constructed originally 4 or 5 years ago it has not done 4 or 5 years work in the ordinary sense because of all these more recent additions to it. If Hd {Mr Hayward / Mr Huddy} in replying to Cx {Major Len W. Cox - Advertising Manager} 9/KW22.2.35 on the subject of mileage could obtain and give us approximate mileages, if they differ from the general run of the chassis, for say, the engine, gearbox and back axle, we could avoid giving to a prospective buyer any misleading information which might react on us at a later date.
