FORT DUNLOP ERDINGTON BIRMINGHAM Messrs. Rolls Royce Limited, DERBY. 31st July, 1936. Dear Sirs, For the attention of Mr. Grylls. Confirming our telephone conversations yesterday, we regret that the twelve 5.00x18 Phantom lll. wheels with the new section rim will not be ready before the holiday as anticipated. As we understand they are urgently required for test on a car in France, we are endeavouring to complete them in three weeks after our Works resume production on the 10th August. It is hoped that this delivery will be in time for your requirements. Yours faithfully, FOR THE DUNLOP RUBBER CO. LIMITED. Manager Car Manfrs. Division. | ||
