| 6021 15th March 1937. Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /Wst.9/AP. The Chloride Electrical Storage Co.Ltd., Exide Works, Clifton Junction, Nr.MANCHESTER. For the attention of Mr.C.E.Mackinnon. Dear Sirs, We are going in for a modified battery on our 25/30.HP. chassis which will give us a lower chassis frame. This entails a battery longer and shallower than at present. We have already discussed this matter with Messrs Peto & Radford and they have suggested a suitable battery, and we thought you would probably like to visit us some time in the near future to see if you can offer either an alternative battery or a battery of similar type to the Peto & Radford. Will you please let us know what date would be suitable for your proposed visit. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LTD. | ||
