| X3117. Experimental Dept. December 6th 1933: Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Lid.{A. J. Lidsey}10/KT: Donald Sessions & Co Ltd., 906 Harrow Road, Willesden, London, N.W.10: For the attention of Mr.Donald Sessions. Dear Sirs, With reference to the new type double geared handle supplied for test, the present position is that we cannot test this out because our cars are not yet coming through with the type of jack which it can be used on. It will be some little time before they do come through, and therefore the decision on the handle will be delayed for a long time. We would like you either to alter the one existing handle so that it will suit the present jack, or produce another one which will be suitable. We are anxious to use this handle as early as possible, and this appears to us to be the only way in which we can test it out reasonably quickly. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED. | ||
