Experimental Dept. November 30th 1933. Ha/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}14/KT. M.{Mr Moon / Mr Moore} Olley Esq., The Cadillac Motor Co., Detroit, Michigan, U.S.A. Dear Cy., Coverley, who you will remember was entirely responsible for the production of the Schneider Trophy engines and who does all our experimental manufacturing, is visiting America almost immediately. Naturally he will find his way to Detroit. I have told him that you will be able to inform him where to go to see the best type of American production. As a matter of fact I think that the Cadillac plant is as good as any. I thought the production set up for the light eight Packard was particularly good, but you will know where to send him. Yours sincerely, | ||
