| 128D EXPERIMENTAL DEPARTMENT. Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /Ed. {J. L. Edwards} 1/JH. 16th. August, 1939. Messrs. John Marston Ltd., Wolverhampton. For the attention of Mr. Steadman. Dear Sirs, Further to your letter of the 10th. instant, we have sent a recommendation through that Mark III blocks be used in our production car heaters, and no doubt a modified detail will follow shortly. We should also like to confirm that the necessary R.R. parts for the Wraith 80 radiator required for 33.G.VII. were handed to Mr. Dunn by the writer yesterday and a promise for delivery by passenger train on Thursday obtained. An alteration from the D.O. has just come through pointing out a dimensional error on the Wraith 80 and B.38 bottom tank cradle. In view of the fact that a radiator has already been made, this alteration is a little belated, but we are enclosing two correct prints. The reason for the alteration seems to be merely a drawing office mistake. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LTD. | ||
