84117 PN.{Mr Northey}12/ATS 30.9.31. [STAMP] RECEIVED 1 OCT 1931 NS{Norman Scott} H S/W. Wor.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager}..from PN.{Mr Northey} Copy to Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} Eg. Hxo Lord Cholmondeley (Chassis GFT-43) writes that he wishes to have a Rev.counter fitted, as he prefers to do his gear-changing with its help, but he wishes to have, if possible, one of the Jaeger instruments having the extra big dial, and it should be fitted quite separate from the other instruments, just above the steering column. Please let me know as quickly as possible whether this proposition is O.K. or whether you have an alternative suggestion to make. PN.{Mr Northey} | ||
