| x 7960 W/S - Hn.{F. C. Honeyman - Retail orders} c. to N. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Gry.{Shadwell Grylls}5/KW.22.3.34; Re. 20-G-IV. We see from Hn.{F. C. Honeyman - Retail orders}16/I/21.3.34 that you wish to change over the experimental features from C's car to GAW-3. We see no reason why the parts removed from GAW-3 when fitting the vacuum clutch should not be fitted to 20-G-IV, the latter then becoming a standard car. This applies also to the carburetter air valve, since 20-G-IV is at the moment fitted with the latest type carburetter and air silencer, and there will therefore be no need for us to send any parts to N.
