23-EX. CAR.

Referring to CK {Mr Clark} 10/KW14.5.31. We are sending this car over to the Repair Dept. so that they can prepare it for Sales. As regards the item, Auto Klean Oil Filter, we understand there is a suggestion that this will be brought in on the first N. series by a scheme which By. {R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} is preparing, so that it can be applied to existing crankcases. If the oil filter is removed from 23-EX, it will still leave fixtures on the crankcase. As regards the body on 23-EX, we have no further use for this, and we think that Sales should make the necessary arrangements to dispose of it.
