| -2- We note you propose asking us to call on June 14th. to view the wings of 2.B.5. and feel that this is rather late if we are to have delivery of the body by the 17th. We supplied you with complete details of the revised radiator and wings with our letter of the 19th.May, and had anticipated, even allowing for the Whitsuntide recess, that we should have had a chance of viewing these wings on the mock up earlier than three days before the delivery date of June 17th. as should we desire to make slight modification, there is every chance of the delivery being delayed. We hope that you will be able to improve on this date. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED. Car Project Office. | ||
