Lee Evans - Chassis Test Manager} from Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Gry.{Shadwell Grylls} Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Gry{Shadwell Grylls}8/R.12.3.37. Sometime ago we sent you two sets of P.III Jacks and asked you to fit them when convenient on Trials cars. The makers of these Jacks now tell us that if we were to standardise the modifications incorporated, the Jacks would cost less. We wonder, therefore, if you have had a chance to fit them to your car, and, if so, whether you have had any trouble. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Gry.{Shadwell Grylls} | ||
