FISHER Esq., 22, Hazel Oak Road, Shirley, Warwick, near BIRMINGHAM. Dear Mr. Fisher, We are very anxious to know if and/or how the 1941 BUICK induction system works. Automotive Industries carry a description in their Sept. 15th issue, and my reaction to that is simply: either there is more in this than meets the eye, or that it does not work (much) and is intended for sales use. It would not be the first time. Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} will probably write direct to America and, in the meantime, any easing of the mystery would naturally be appreciated at this end. Yours faithfully, | ||
