| 43117 Exptl. Dept. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Bwg.{J. C. Bowring}10/KW. 21st March, 1935. Messrs. Jenks Bros., Owen Road, Wolverhampton. Dear Sirs, We have with interest noticed the method you have adopted for jacking up the "Light 6" Vauxhall Cars, and shall be further interested to have your suggestions for a similar scheme for our 3½ litre Bentley which has fairly high rated road springs. Will you please let us have full particulars of this Jack which we would rather like to try out on one of our Experimental cars, if it can be suitably fitted. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED. | ||
