| S/W. Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} 1113? Bly{B. W. Bleaney - Bentley Sales}4/SM. 15.5.39. Further to Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}5/R.20.4.39. regarding cylinder wear figures, I have asked KC to send you details of two further makes, namely the Packard and V.8. Ford. I hope the information will be of some use. I find it is more difficult than I thought to get a number of cars. Most of these Service people seem to think people are holding up sending their cars in for repairs, the same as they are in respect of buying new ones. However, we will keep trying to get additional figures until you tell us to stop. Bly{B. W. Bleaney - Bentley Sales} | ||
