| r 1158 To By/Ald.{F. Allwood - Experimental Design} from Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Std. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Std.5/MH.{M. Huckerby}17.6.38. We wish to use a single Rotherham tap with rubber hose for our car heater water connections in place of the R.R. tap copper pipe etc. used in the past, in order to reduce cost to a minimum. Will you, therefore, please detail the necessary adaptors pump cover modifications to permit of this. These are required for Wraith, B.III and 1.B.50 and the parts used will be common to each of these cars. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Std. | ||
