| Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/FD.{Frank Dodd - Bodies}7/JH. 200B 1601. 12th November, 1937. Messrs. Park Ward & Co.Ltd., 473, High Road, Willesden, LONDON.N.W.10. For the attention of Mr. Dangerfield. Dear Sir, We are despatching today under separate cover 1 Lucas windscreen wiper for use on 1.B.5. body. The centres are 18" and you have asked for 17 1/4" as we had this wiper in stock we thought it would at least enable you to fit up the boxes without delay. It is not a big job to have the connecting arm shortened 3/4" or to obtain a new one if necessary. Will you please confirm these arrangements with the writer. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LTD. | ||
