| 1293 Exptl. Dept. Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /Les.27/JH. 28th October, 1936. The Leyland Motors Ltd., Layland, Lans. Dear Sirs, For the attention of Mr. Pilkington. Mr. Robotham has asked me to write to you concerning a Mr. Max Fleischmann who is coming to this country shortly to demonstrate on hydraulic anti-rolling system which is connected to the shock-absorbers. The system is called "Stabilus" is produced in Kroblenz Germany. I understand that you are procuring for us a set of parts to give hydraulic stabilization and am wondering if this is the same system. I tried the Stabilic system about a year ago on a Ford, but as the ride was so hard the owner was told not to return until He could demonstrate a less harsh ride. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LTD. | ||
