HS{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/FP.{F. Potts} c. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} X1245 E.5/HP.31.3.36. re Sr's Demonstration Bentley. This is to confirm that you will make up a sample Seapak dashboard insulator for Sr's demonstration Bentley, as agreed with Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}, to be sent out to Paris when a 10,000 mile car goes over. I wrote to Sr about a sample of the carpet but he has not realised the necessity for this being made up here, and I shall have to write him again. E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} | ||
