1166. W/S. To C. from Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Gry.{Shadwell Grylls} c. Cx.{Major Len W. Cox - Advertising Manager} W/S. c. Bly.{B. W. Bleaney - Bentley Sales} W/S. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Gry.{Shadwell Grylls}10/MH.{M. Huckerby}23.3.39. JACKS. We have fitted brackets for the B.V. jack scheme to the rear of our Wraith 29.G.VI. They are not quickly transferable to another car as Wraiths have not been designed for these brackets. All cars of the rationalised programme have the necessary frame extension for jacking whatever body tail is fitted. 29.G. will show the principal and we suggest bringing the car to Conduit St.{Capt. P. R. Strong} about 11.30 next Monday morning if this is convenient to you. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Gry.{Shadwell Grylls} | ||
