Lu546 ~~BY~~ c. Wor. {Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} c. Hx. c. Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} re. Locking Device for Straight Sided Rims. With further reference to memos EP {G. Eric Platford - Chief Quality Engineer} 1/H24.8.25. and Thn3/H31.8.25. This locking device has now been fitted to all chassis despatched for some time. We wish again to bring forward the question as to whether it is considered that flanges with locking device should be fitted on cars in customers' hands. Particulars of cars which are fitted with this locking device can no doubt be obtained from the Works records. EP {G. Eric Platford - Chief Quality Engineer} /Thn. | ||
