300 HPS.{Horace Percy Smith - Experimental Factory Mgr} from Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Gry.{Shadwell Grylls} Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Gry{Shadwell Grylls}8/R.11.3.37. 36-EX. Confirming our conversation with you, we want to try for a short test a Wraith wheel movement on a Limousine car. We shall be able to let you have 36-EX on Monday or Tuesday next week, and shall be glad if you will fit the Wraith wheel movement parts destined for 39-EX. We believe that the springs now in 39-EX will have to be used for the test, as no others are available. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Gry.{Shadwell Grylls} | ||
