| Files 300a Paris Dépôt. August 10th /37 GRY{Shadwell Grylls} from Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} Will you please send a voucher for me London to Derby to Avenue Georges V immediately. The threaded shackles on 32 E.X. seem to be excellent for absence of knocks but are too prone to seize up. Can we buy a set of Olds shackles and copy their proportions. The deletion of 'hydraulic' tappets on 32 E.X. seems to be a great success. No deterioration in silence & little adjustment required. | ||
