| To BY {R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} /CGH. {W Clough} from Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Rn. {Mr Robinson} X4555 Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} 2/LG3.4.29 With reference to the attached letter from Mann Egerton Ltd. dated 25th.ult. We personally have not found the Lucas dipping reflectors head lamps to be a very reliable piece of mechanism, but as they apparently work on other cars, there does not seem to be any reason why they should not be made to work on R-R cars. There is no difficulty whatever in fitting them. Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Rn. {Mr Robinson} | ||
