FROM CWB

GSK-39.

The attached is a letter I have received from Mr. G.R.N. Minchin after a run on a front-wheel-brake 20 HP car recently delivered to Messrs. Paddon Bros.

I think his remarks are very interesting and in most cases are sound criticisms from his particular point of view. I have taken the opportunity of going with him in this car and am not satisfied that the best results possible are being obtained from the adjustments of the slipper-drive or the carburetter.

I am therefore arranging for this car to be sent in to Cricklewood for these points to receive attention.
