| W/P - Sr. x1104 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}17/KW.28.7.36. Front Wheel Drive Citroen Parts. Sr/Dn21/24.7.36. We are indeed indebted to you for getting us the front wheel drive parts. I had given up hope of them ever materialising. We expect you over for the T.T., and if you come you will of course stay with us before the race. Immediately afterwards I am going to Scotland for a short holiday, so shall not be at home then. Thanks for the report on the R.R. alloy bearings, as usual this was very efficiently done. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
