We are hoping to SHORTLY complete the 10,000 miles on the car to which the above trial Jacks are fitted, and should therefore be able to standardise these Jacks in time to be fitted to C.2 Series, which commences on February 17th. We have been in touch with Mr. Sessions, who informs us that they can start delivery the last week in January, at the rate of 20 sets per week. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/J.Bowering. | ||
