| x322 To Roy. {Mr H. Royce - Buyer} Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Les.2/KW.6.6.35. We are sending you a sample of one of the front engine mounting rubbers which has done only a very small mileage on Spectre(Codename for Phantom III) No.1. This rubber was produced by the Birmingham and Leyland Rubber Co., Leyland. Now of course all engine mounting rubbers are coming from the British Tyre & Rubber Co., Ltd. We thought you would be interested in the importance of keeping the best quality rubber for engine mountings, etc. Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Les. | ||
