| Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} from Hy.{Tom Haldenby - Plant Engineer} Hy{Tom Haldenby - Plant Engineer}27/M.25.1.35. PIVOT CHANGEOVER FOR BENTLEYS. HS{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}5/KW.22.1.35. With regard to the new water excluders, Sales ask us if we will let them have a rough sketch indicating the sort of thing the excluder device is, because they cannot see how black paint would be satisfactory, say - on a pale coloured brake drum whatever type of wings are fitted. Sales also ask if they are right in assuming the excluders are applicable to all four wheels? Will you also let me have this information. Hy.{Tom Haldenby - Plant Engineer} | ||
