| To CWB. from Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} X8410 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}2/LE1.10.27. SPRINGING. X8410 X4117 With reference to CWB6/GM29.9.27. We have ordered some 10-EX type springs for 65-EF. Before fitting them to the car, however, we are trying them on one of our own closed cars as we have so far had no experience with them on covered bodies. In our opinion they should be tried with Hartford cum hydraulics at the rear. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
