1030 Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/EAG.12/ET. E.H. CLIFTON Esq., Twining Models, Pike Lane, NORTHAMPTON. 31st December, 1940. 704 Dear Sir, We send you herewith print of facier and instru- ment board for the Myth. You will see that we have now got a separate mapping for the screen rail. The glove box and instrument panel are set forward into the scuttle dash. You will be able to get the loca- tion from the ten inch lines. Should there be anything that is not clear to you, will you please telephone us. Regarding completion of the model, it is understood that you are doing your utmost to get it completed by Wednesday the 8th of January. This should enable you to get the chromium plating done in Northampton, which we think would be far better than sending the parts through us for plating. I have discussed the matter with Mr. Robotham, and he is insistent on having the car complete before it comes here for inspection. Yours sincerely, | ||
