Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}19/KW3.1.35 I note that the parts for the new flywheel and clutch will not be ready for three or four weeks. What about the steering experiment you wanted to fit; have you got these parts ready? The car is now at Cricklewood having certain things done to it. If the steering parts are not ready then we must leave them until you have everything ready. C. | ||
