| Wor{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager}/Mcr3/B24614. contd. -2- Our own springing is so designed on the modern chassis that we obtain the best result without shock absorbers, whilst on the earlier cars our tests showed that the friction type which we fitted were preferable. Had we, of course, found any other type had been more suitable, we should naturally have adopted same. p. Wor.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} | ||
