Dear Sirs, We believe you are able to make tin gaiters for leaf springs after the American style. Could you please put a set in hand for us for the spring which you have got as a pattern for interleaving, and let us know the approximate cost. We should like them as soon as possible. How is the reinforced interleaving progressing and when will it be ready? Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LTD. | ||
