Re New Springing - Shock Absorbers

Mr. Spinney 26-10-11

Will you please issue the necessary instructions for altering and fitting a car fitted with flexible inverted springs, with our old oil shock absorber.

You will recollect that Mr. Royce asked that this should be done some time ago.
At that time no instructions were issued to that effect.

These should be fitted to the car with more flexible springs
