Reply to be addressed to John Marston Limited for the attention of AWD/BR Noted Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /SM 7th September, 1937 Messrs. Rolls Royce Limited, DERBY. For the attention of Mr. Steadman. WRAITH RADIATOR. Dear Sirs, In reply to your letter of the 6th inst., regarding our approximate figure of £6. 15. 0d. in connection with the manufacture of the inner radiator less shell and shutter assembly, we are enclosing herewith a list of the parts which we would supply to enable you to make a comparison of your costs. We hope to have our final figure for this radiator completed on Friday including the tool cost. Allowance will be made in the tool cost for the list of patterns and dies which you have available and which was sent to us under cover of your letter of the 18th ult. Will you also please remember that our quotation does not include for the provision of the thermostat shutter details, as we were of the opinion that the shutters could be fixed in a set position and so save the expense of the thermostat and the control gear. Yours faithfully, FOR JOHN MARSTON LIMITED [Signature] MANAGER. RADIATOR & SHEET METAL DEPT. | ||
