X1305 To Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from Sg. {Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} Copy to W.A.R. [text is struck through] re Dubonnet Suspension. Sg {Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} 2/E2.12.35 In view of the information received from America relative to the above, I should be glad to have information when I am at Derby as to what we are doing with the Dubonnet suspension which we had fitted up on one of our cars. In the light of the information received, it seems to me that we ought definitely to scrap it and spend no more money on it. Sg. {Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} | ||
