Re - Chassis 101-TC

With reference to the 3 Dunlop balloon triple studded covers and balloon tubes size 33 x 6.750 received from Dunlops as per G/R.22007 dated 20/4/26, against Sales Dept. order No. 78537, kindly note we do not now recommend this type of tyre and in consequence we have arranged with Hy{Tom Haldenby - Plant Engineer} for these to be handed over to the Experimental Dept. for their use. We have already issued further instructions to Dunlops to supply similar size tyres of the traction tread type.
