re: Chassis 116-GN Baron de la{L. A. Archer} Graviere.

With reference to your Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/LID{A. J. Lidsey}3/MA.30.12.32, the new type radiator was fitted to this chassis by us on the 19/I.33.

We have today written to the owner asking him to let us have his opinion upon the cars performance with regard to water temperature when climbing mountain passes and upon the receipt of a reply from him we will communicate with you further.
