Re. 20 HP. Chassis No. GMK.49 - G.D.Flather Esq.

The Expl: Dept: are just receiving instructions for the new 20 HP. steering which we hope will reduce the faults complained of on the present steering. It will be however 2 to 3 months before we shall have completed our tests or carried them sufficiently far to be able to recommend the steering for use on any customers' car.
