| COPY. TRANSLATION. Deauville/Paris. 11.8.26. Ps. Chassis 101-HC - Lady Poulet. Having had occasion to drive the above car, I noticed something abnormal in the steering. On looking over this mechanism, I observed that the pendulum lever touches the engine tray on the nearside, when the steering is at full lock. At the same time, the lever appears to be bent backwards, and the same remark applies to the cross steering tube. I have asked this customer to call on you during her next visit to Paris, when these features can be verified. (Signed) R.{Sir Henry Royce} Carre. | ||
