| S/W (Copy to Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair})! X82410 Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}10/M/10.1.28. In a conversation I had with Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} yesterday evening, he mentioned that a scheme had been passed for reducing the height of our chassis by reducing the cambre of the springs. Anything that can be done to reduce the height of our chassis will be beneficial, because as I am sure you are aware, the overall height of our cars is a strong point of criticism. I should be glad if you would kindly let me know what the position is in regard to the introduction of this modification on standard production. Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} | ||
