AND Hd{Mr Hayward/Mr Huddy}/SB{Mr Bull/Mr Bannister}8/MW5.1.32. We note that C. has agreed to fit the sliding joint type of exhaust manifold to this car. A set of these parts is now available and will be sent over to you today. It would be of great assistance to us if you could arrange with Rv. to keep us informed as to the behaviour of this manifold and the mileage covered. If the car is one which he attends to periodically, we should like a monthly report. There are no special fitting instructions. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Lid.{A. J. Lidsey} | ||
