We should like you to arrange to have the weights taken of the Cadillac shell, also of the Phantom Limousine shell and a Continental Touring shell. We shall be quite satisfied if JLL obtains the weights, in which case Archer could keep in contact with him. Our own figures were for a Limousine. HR/Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
