Orpheus Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Gry.{Shadwell Grylls} from Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}13/ML.25.3.41. 400d. 9.B.V. They left an important piece of felt out of the sunshine roof, which caused it to rattle. We are investigating the wind-screen leak, and we are providing a 22-gallon petrol tank as an alternative for Continental use, on the B.V. If we find that most customers think as you do, we can standardise this capacity. Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
