| -2- (5) A hissing noise underneath when hot. Investigation. ------------- Generally Capt. Frazer Nash was reasonable and if we make the car a good standard I believe he will be satisfied. He stated that his old J2 was a delight to drive. Has every praise for our brakes and is in agreement with our keeping the size down. He doesn't know how we manage it, but results are good. Kingsbury :- Will you please arrange to send to (1) 3 1/2 litre induction pipe complete with carburetters. (2) New type governor if possible or a new standard type. (3) Propellor Shaft Dampers. (4) Spring for shutter control. (5) latest type of plugs (if any). Arrangements are being made to supply a car for this customer, when so arranged his car will come in to Kingsbury.
