| X1559 Expl: Dept: Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} 2/LG. 5th. Oct. 1928. Messrs. The Bendix-Perrot Brakes Ltd., Westwood Rd., Witton, Birmingham. Dear Sirs, With reference to your letter of the 4th.inst. We beg to state that we have not approved of the Whitehead system for our Silver Ghost(1907 40/50 historic RAC 15,000 miles trial) type cars. We are not sure what attitude our American Company is taking up at the moment; we cannot think that they are giving such changeovers their support. We are glad to note that you appreciate our difficulties in this respect. Yours faithfully, | ||
