Hallam - Head Repairs}93. With reference to the proposed new Depot Sheet No. Hm.{Capt. W. Hallam - Head Repairs}93 dealing with the adding of the figure 'O' to 20 HP. Wire Wheels, we give below a copy of a memo. from 'C' :- "We think you might hold this up for a bit, as delivery of chassis with 20" wheels will not start for a couple of weeks yet, so that if they are issued, say early in January, it should be quite soon enough. We also suggest that as Depots are not likely to know much about "N" Series, it would be better to say 'Commencing Chassis GFN-71' ". Hm.{Capt. W. Hallam - Head Repairs} [Signature] | ||
