| W/s Bs.{A J. Barnes - Assistant Manager} from Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} Customers cars Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}4/ML.27.1.41. 761(1) W.Keith Elliott,Esq., (BS.{A J. Barnes - Assistant Manager}8/KW.21.1.41.) We took the matter up with our people and discovered that there were no parts available for fitting these filters. We therefore referred the matter to the filter Manufacturers and they agreed to put through a quantity of the necessary fittings so that filters can be fitted at customer's requests. The parts are now being made and we should be obliged if you would contact Mr. Keith W. Elliott and tell him that we will let him know as soon as we are in a position to deal with the car. Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} Despatched in Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}'s absence. | ||
