-2- Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Clm.{D. D. Clapham}1/JH. 9th. April, 1940. We do not feel that your damper is likely to be a success on the larger type of car with soft springs though it is possible that it might be some good on small cars with hard springing. We have had no experience of small cars so we cannot help you there, but you might be able to interest some manufacturers of small cars in it. Yours sincerely, | ||
