Harrison Esq. ---------------------------------------- front We have today handed over to Mr. Brock a nearside shock damper removed from the above car with a complaint that it is noisy in operation. A replacement shock damper was sent out to the Owner as a result of a telephone call last week. This damper is of the latest split piston type and we think that you will be interested in having a special investigation made as to the cause of the noise. We shall be glad to receive a report concerning the damper in due course after the examination. Hd.{Mr Hayward/Mr Huddy} SB{Mr Bull/Mr Bannister} | ||
