Huckerby}25.4.39. BENTLEY REAR AXLE. Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} considers it important that we should make as soon as possible, a production wire wheel axle in order to make sure that the bits go together and that there are no snags we have not thought of. This axle can be fitted to 10.B.V. in place of the one now being used when it is ready. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Gry.{Shadwell Grylls} | ||
