V7862 Exptl. Dept. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}5/KW. 21st July, 1934. E.R. Hall, Esq., The Beach Hotel, Frinton-on-Sea. Dear Hall, The car is going very well but we do not anticipate it will be ready to hand over to you until Thursday. We have unfortunately cut the Duralumin which you supplied for the rear wings to too short a length. Will you let us have two more pieces as soon as possible ? Yours sincerely, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED. | ||
