| +212 RHC.{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Gry.{Shadwell Grylls}10/KW.26.5.34. Clutch for 1-B-IV. The altered type pedal operation for this car has had no effect on the clutch jaggers when getting away in 2nd gear. We therefore want to try a centre plate with increased cushioning effect. Will you therefore please order a plate to GB.526, but .100 thick throughout. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Gry.{Shadwell Grylls} | ||
