| X5430 S/W Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} CB/C30.7.26. Re' Steering Lock on 20 h.p. As you know, it had been intended that we should try on chassis No. 1644 various new features, such as steering lock alteration, hydraulic shock absorbers and medium pressure tyres. Have you any car upon which we could try these features, as I understand that although they have been standardised they have not been tried by Sales. C. | ||
