X3465 PN{Mr Northey}6/DN23.10.25. TO Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} c. to H FROM PN{Mr Northey} "SILVER GHOST" STEERING. In connection with this and your Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}1/LG18.9.25, BJ wishes that you, H.{Arthur M. Hanbury - Head Complaints} and myself shall discuss as early as possible the position arising out of the necessity for safeguarding "Silver Ghost" owners having front wheel brakes, from experiences of steering wobbles as far as is possible. Can you state a date when you are likely to be in London when you might give half-an-hour to the consideration of this matter? PN.{Mr Northey} | ||
