Cassel}3/EP.{G. Eric Platford - Chief Quality Engineer}12.12.35, we have examined these drums and we noticed that they are not quite finished. When they are ready, the first test will be to put them on our rig to determine their cooling characteristics, strength, etc: afterwards they will be put on a car. Will you please advise me when they are finished. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/A.F.Martindale. | ||
