| To Hd.{Mr Hayward/Mr Huddy} X760 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Smth. 2/JH. 16. 6. 36. Trials Bentley B-2-GA. Confirming our telephone conversation we are sending this car over to you. The complaints are that it needs decarbonising and the clutch is jaggering. Also the brakes are squeaking. We should like to inspect the clutch when you have it stripped. When we built it up about six months ago it was perfectly smooth, but it has since deteriorated and we want to find out why. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Smth. | ||
