| 1175 Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}2/ML. 13th. Feb: 1940. V.W.Pilkington,Esq., Leyland Motors, Ltd., Leyland, Lancs. Dear Pilkington, I have heard nothing further regarding the dry liner aluminium block engine that you were running and should be interested to know when we may expect to be able to see the pieces. Mr. Spurrier said you were going ahead with our servo on your brake system and if you have done anything with it I shall be interested to know the results. Yours sincerely, P.S. Have just opened letter saying you have sent block off. Thank you very much. | ||
