| W/S - Bly.{B. W. Bleaney - Bentley Sales} from Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} x7961 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}30/KW.15.11.34. Re H.{Arthur M. Hanbury - Head Complaints} Thompson Esq. Thank you so much for your Bly{B. W. Bleaney - Bentley Sales}/W.2.13.11.34. I was most interested in your remarks about the Leveroll fittings running in a channel, and shall be glad to hear whether they do save this extra 1/2" of seat height. Could you let me know what the charge to Mr. Fairey was for lengthening the steering column ? One point I omitted to mention in my previous memo. Mr. Thompson wants the original Bentley Lamps as he much prefers the dipping arrangement on these to that provided by the P.100. I believe that these lamps are very much cheaper than the P.100, would any allowance be made in view of this ? Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
