| 1029 EXPERIMENTAL DEPARTMENT. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/MHR.{M. H. Rigby}7/ST.{Capt. P. R. Strong} 19th November, 1941. New Hudson Ltd., Garrison Lane, BIRMINGHAM, 9. Attention of Mr. Fraser. Dear Sirs, We enclose copies of recent correspondence between Coventry Radiators and ourselves, with regard to blanks for some special brake shoes required for a rig. These shoes are purposely very similar to the type supplied by you for our Bentley V, but the web is rather wider and the ends are slightly different. Mr. E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} Chare has retained the print we sent with our letter of the 15th instant, so, as we are anxious to get the rig going, we should be very grateful if you would kindly authorise him to send us the blanks. Yours faithfully, | ||
