August 26th 1937 R.Cordey Esq., Wolsey Motors Ltd., Ward End, BIRMINGHAM 8 Dear Mr.Cordey, Thank you for the opportunity I had this morning of seeing your rear axle test rig. As requested by your engineers, I am sending you an arrangement drawing of our Bentley rear axle which I hope will help your experiments on straddle mounted pinions. I am hoping your Administration will agree to us having a photograph of your rig, and will allow one of our people to go over to make the necessary sketches so that we can build a similar rig in these Works. Yours sincerely, | ||
