Kingsbury. 30.11.36.

I am enclosing a 2.B.A. nut and part of the bolt which has broken. The part belongs to the dynamo drive of the 3½-litre Bentley. It will be seen that the drilling of the hole for the split pin just about cuts the bolt in two. This does not affect us on the 4¼, but will when these bolts and nuts are used.
