COPY. 8th March, 1929. Messrs. Rolls-Royce Ltd., Derby. Dear Sirs, 20-HP WIRE WHEELS - GWB-2 TYPE. We thank you for your letter of 7th inst. confirming your 'phone conversation of yesterday. Upon receipt of your phone instructions the entire work on the 19" rim was suspended, and the following is the exact position in which we are placed:- 30 wheels assembled. 300 rims in course of operation. We should have been only too pleased to have relieved you of these rims which we have made up to your instructions, but upon looking through our business we find that we have no other outlet. We await with interest your instructions as to what procedure we are to adopt. Yours faithfully, For DUNLOP RIM & WHEEL CO. LTD. | ||
