| 1049 S/W. Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} Re- Buick Weight. Cx{Major Len W. Cox - Advertising Manager}14/KW3.3.39. I notice from Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}3/R20.2.39. that the Buick with petrol weighed 36 3/4 cwts. I was hoping that when you gave us that information, which I know I suggested would be interesting, you would also tell us the margin of error on the speedometer. As you doubtless have this by now will you kindly let me know what it is. Cx.{Major Len W. Cox - Advertising Manager} dwb{D. W. Brown} | ||
