-7- Q 3. Any improvements not previously mentioned which will produce greater comfort to the driver and passengers. A The removal of the cross-member at present preventing wells for the passengers feet in the back of the close-coupled body. Q 4. Any means whereby the present electrical system can be improved. A Vibrator control dynamo. Q 5. Do you agree that the present design of car together with the trend of coachwork design has made the jacking question so difficult that a good scheme of permanent four-wheel jacking should be standardised and provision should be made in the design to incorporate such a system? (This is already done on a car which sells complete for less than £600). A Yes. | ||
