| 3. B.W. Bleaney Esq. 11.4.39. I have complained consistently about this feature of the car, and I sincerely hope that before long a modified type of springing will be available. I should also like to feel that if you do not add the overdrive to the old type gear box one could have the existing type as an alternative. As I have said before, in this Country acceleration is far more important than a maximum speed. Again thanking you for giving me the opportunity of carrying out this trial. Yours faithfully, | ||
