Hm.{Capt. W. Hallam - Head Repairs} (Sevres) From Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Lid.{A. J. Lidsey} 84013. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Lid.{A. J. Lidsey}5/MA.15.2.32. Re. EXPERIMENTAL EXHAUST MANIFOLDS. Thank you for your HM{Capt. W. Hallam - Head Repairs}/Va.26/RC.{R. Childs}10.2.32; we quite appreciate that you will have difficulty in obtaining information regarding mileage etc of cars when in customers hands. We agree that it is safe to assume that the manifolds are giving satisfaction if you hear nothing from the owners. We shall, however, be very grateful to receive any information which you can manage to collect without unduly worrying the customers in question. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/A.J.Lidsey. | ||
