Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}9/ML. 25.4.40. C.L.Breedon,Esq., Messrs Wilmot Breedon Ltd., Eastern Works, Birmingham. 1. Dear Breedon, Many thanks for your letter re our Mass Meeting. We now have a complete section at Derby which is dealing with the engineering side of body work and in future they will deal with all matters such as fittings and hardware. They will issue specifications and drawings to Ward who will act as the Experimental Production Engineer. Therefore, the correct procedure will be to send all samples etc., to Derby and at the same time inform Ward that this has been done. Incidentally, I should be glad to know if you have had the ventilating window, windscreen and other parts which were promised. Yours sincerely, | ||
