| Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} To Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Rm. {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} from Sg. {Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} Latest RR.Expanding Carburetter for the 20/25. Copy to Wor. {Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} E.C.BY. Dr. Bailey. I am pleased to see from Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Rm. {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} 8/KW.3.5.34 that you have completed the development and test of the new RR expand-ing carburetter for the 20/25. Referring to the Minutes of meeting held at Derby on Tuesday last and the question of putting one of these carbur-etters on a London car, the best car to put it on would be the one C. uses, i.e. GAW-3, because this is used under normal conditions of London traffic etc. with a certain amount of .country use at week-ends. Will you please arrange direct with C. as to how and when this carburetter could be fitted. Sg. {Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} | ||
