| 84094. Expl. Dept. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Gry.{Shadwell Grylls}S/MA. 24th., November 1932. Messrs. Cam Gears Ltd., Biscot Road Works, Luton, BEDS. For the attention of Mr. R.{Sir Henry Royce} Pentony. Dear Sirs, We thank you for your RP/CGS. of the 22nd., inst. We will send you shortly both the support bracket and the drop arm, the latter finished except for the splines which we think you would rather do yourselves. We attach detail drawings of our steering wheel and steering column so that you can finish the top of your column accordingly. Further, we think it would be an advantage if your steering was fixed to the dash board in the same way as ours is. We are therefore also sending you drawings of the bottom half of our column and the method of attachment, and should be glad if you would arrange for the Bishop steering to be supported in an exactly similar way. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED. | ||
