P.III CLUTCH.

We have received from Ferodo some new facings known as S-7409.

Will you please make up a driven plate to G.85600 ( late EX.27309 ) using these facings. This will be similar to the plate now made by Borg and Beck, except for the facings and flat headed rivets instead of the Borg and Beck csk. headed rivet.
