X3503 X5440 The springs used on the 'India' cars are a different length and design to those used on the present standard 20 HP. cars. Ps. from Paris has been at the Works this week. He will personally urge the Lemoine people to supply us with sets of springs for test suitable for the 'India' chassis as quickly as possible. Before Lemoine springs were adopted in Paris we had carried out tests on the bumping rig which showed that they were very good springs, above our average. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} | ||
