| F.J. HARDY. 1300 28th. October 1936. BY.6/G.{Mr Griffiths - Chief Accountant / Mr Gnapp} Messrs. Adamant Engineering Co. Ltd., Dallow Road, LUTON. Dear Sirs, 25/30 HP. STEERING FOLLOWERS. ------------------------ After considering the points raised by Mr. Matravers this morning when discussing the follower of the 25/30 steering gear over the telephone, we have decided :- (a). That in future we will arrange for Messrs. Ransome & Marles to buy the material direct to a specification which we will supply, in accordance with what has been done in the past. (b). In the meantime we would like you to forward to Messrs. Ransome & Marles a further supply of the material to produce say another 200 rollers, which would give us time to look around and obtain deliveries of the material. (c). Messrs. Ransome & Marles will produce the rollers and deliver them direct to these Works, so that in future all that we shall expect you to supply for the 25/30 chassis will be the cam. (d). It is clearly understood that we take full responsibility for the rollers under these circumstances. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED. [Signature] TECHNICAL PRODUCTION ENGINEER. | ||
