re 36-EX.

Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}12/E16.4.36

Referring to the above car, I should be glad to know whether you have now discovered the cause of the very bad steering joggles on this car.

Our efforts to reproduce the American type steering do not seem to have been very good and, as mentioned at the last conference, the best steering we have ever tried on a P.III was the one with the original American bits.
