| COPY. TWINING MODELS Pike Lane, NORTHAMPTON. Attention of E.A.G. Messrs. Rolls-Royce Ltd. Clan Foundry, BELPER. August, 13th 1940. Dear Sirs, We thank you for your favour of the 12th instant. The work will be put in hand at once and the earliest possible delivery arranged for. This depends on the labour question entirely, but we shall expedite the work as suggested by Mr. E.A. Green. It is quite clear that the model will, in the first place be finished as quotation A.{Mr Adams} and that after approval will be made to conform to quotation B. as regards metal work and chromium plating. As stated in our previous letter, no interior work is allowed for in either quotation but the model will be made with a detachable floor to facilitate this should you decide to incorporate any later on. Enclosed please find a rough tracing covering a few more queries. Thanking you for your order and assuring you of our best attention, We are, Yours Faithfully, Twining Models. Sgd. E.H. CLIFTON Encl. 1 Rough Tracing. | ||
