| 1370 Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /Gry. {Shadwell Grylls} 9/MH. {M. Huckerby} 7th. June, 1939. Messrs. Dunlop Rubber Co. Ltd., Fort Dunlop, Erdington, BIRMINGHAM, 24. For the attention of H.E.Price, Esq. Dear Sirs, Thank you for your letter of 5th. June, reference HEP/WS.590.C. concerning the 6" rim wheels which you are going to make for us. We checked over your drawing CDS.1687, sent in a previous letter, and agree that your rim will fit into the centre of our 5 x 10 wheel. We shall, however, require about another ¼" out of centre point more than is shown on your drawing. We hope to be able to let you have 5 wheels by the beginning of next week. Yours faithfully, for ROLLS-ROYCE LTD. | ||
