| X1166 Exptl. Dept. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Bwg.{J. C. Bowring}10/KW. 20th November, 1935. The Automotive Products Co.Ltd., Tachbrook Road, Leamington Spa. For the attention of Mr. C. Clench. Dear Sirs, We thank you for your letter CC/PV of the 16th inst., and note your requirements. Attached is drawing LeC.4799, showing the position in which the Smith's Pump is fitted under the floorboards. This appears to be the only available and accessible spot on the chassis. This drawing does not give dimensions, but taking the level top of frame and line of dashboard into consideration, the rest can be scaled to a fair degree of accuracy. Should you require further details, kindly let us know. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED. | ||
