Royce - Buyer} Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /Les.6/M.6.2.37. Road Spring Costs. Re: Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /Les.22/AP.18.1.37. We see that a decision has been made concerning the rolled eyes for Bentley, and suggest that it should also be agreed to delete machine grinding for Ph.III rear springs. This saves 5/6d per chassis, and is standard 25 H.P. practice. Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /Les. | ||
