CHASSIS NO. B.22 A.W.

I nearly wrote the above car off twice last week, due to front axle tramping, which Dd. has tested for himself, and considers that it may be due to ineffective shock dampers, but he has no tackle to deal with the job.

What do you suggest, as I do not know whether Hythe Road have the tackle, or are in your opinion, competent to rectify the trouble.
