| -2- Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Les.7/KW. Gauge for inside dia. of Bellows. Outside GO 1.029 dia. NOT GO 1.039 We suggest that you should make similar gauges for your own use. We are not sending you the faulty bellows back, until we have heard your comments. We realise we have probably fitted bellows to cars which are equally far from the drawing limit, but we do expect you to work accurately to the new limits. We have given instructions that any bellows outside these limits are to be returned. We hope you will be able to find a way out of the difficulty. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED. | ||
