We send you herewith N.Sch.4677, to overcome the above trouble, of which we are now getting a considerable number of complaints. We should like to try a set of parts to this drawing as soon as possible, to see whether it works or not, and should also like to run a set in France on 21-G-IV. If you could make a third set of parts we could try them out on a customer's car. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Gry.{Shadwell Grylls} | ||
