To EY. from EFC. c. EY/RD. c. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} X5730 EFCL/T27.5.26. On 20 HP. chassis 10-GIII on the 10,000 mile test in France we had stainless steel screws for the switch handle . These have been examined since the return of the car and appear to be perfectly O.K. There appears to be no reason why these should not be made standard. If you consider a standardisation sheet is required, would you please let us know. EFC. | ||
