| 1166 Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Gry{Shadwell Grylls}3/R.{Sir Henry Royce} 24th November, 1936. Automotive Products Company Ltd., Tachbrook Road, LEAMINGTON SPA. For the attention of Mr. G.{Mr Griffiths - Chief Accountant / Mr Gnapp} Van Vestraut. Dear Sirs, Further to your letter of the 18th instant concerning Jack brackets, we have now had an opportunity of looking into your drawing, and find that there is adequate clearances for the cross steering tube which passes underneath the fixing nuts in question. We are keeping the drawings as they will be useful to us for reference if we standardise this arrangement. We hope, therefore, that you will very shortly send us these two brackets, and also your hand pump, which we have not yet seen. Yours faithfully, For ROLLS-ROYCE LTD. | ||
