Hanbury - Head Complaints} SCOTT CEANDESS, LTD. GENERAL PRESS WORKERS IN MOST METALS. CAPSTAN WORKERS. MERRIDALE WORKS, MERRIDALE STREET, WOLVERHAMPTON. Our Ref. HS{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/MD. Your Ref. Messrs. Rolls Royce, Ltd., Derby. 12th August, 1935. For the special attention of Mr. Trainer. Dear Sirs, Mr. E.R. Hall has been in touch with us regarding a 5" Filler Cap to fit his T.T. Bentley, and mentions that his Petrol Tank has an inside measurement of 4.7/16" diameter. He further goes on to say, the present Filler Cap fits over the orifice, so that if we leave a neck about 3" long on the Cap itself this should be quite satisfactory. As we are not quite certain as to what his actual requirement is, can we ask your kind co-operation by sending us a detailed sketch of the present fitment on his Petrol Tank, this should then enable us to see more clearly what actually is required. Thanking you for your kind attention. We are, dear Sirs, Yours faithfully, P.P. Ceandess, Ltd., Secretary. | ||
