N-S Ox. c. to W (Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}) c. to W (Mx{John H Maddocks - Chief Proving Officer}) Br2/S. 30.11.36 re Chassis 3-AZ-30 - Pass & Joyce Trials ---------------- With reference to Mx{John H Maddocks - Chief Proving Officer}33/T27.11.36, the above car was in our hands last week for all modifications to be executed. At the same time, we supplied and fitted a new clutch plate obtained from Derby. Mr.Pass has run the car for approximately 200 miles over the weekend, and he informed me this morning that the clutch is now very satisfactory. It would appear therefore that this matter should be closed, unless there are any developments. Br [signature] | ||
