X4462 HEAD OFFICE AND FACTORY: INCHINNAN, RENFREWSHIRE INDIA TYRE & RUBBER COMPANY LTD. MILEAGE DEPARTMENT (AREA "B") 80 CLAPHAM ROAD LONDON, S.W.9 TELEPHONES: RELIANCE 2662/3 OUR REF. R/WBT. YOUR REF. 30th January, 1935. W.A. ROBOTHAM, ESQ., Experimental Department, Messrs. Rolls-Royce Ltd., DERBY. Dear Robotham, Many thanks for yours of January 29th; and for saying that you will have a look at Captn. Dugdale's car when it comes to Derby on February 4th. I have spoken to Mr. Falconer of Park, Ward's on the telephone this morning, and understand that B-10-DG has not yet arrived at Park, Ward's, and I am afraid even if it did arrive to-morrow, the body would not really be sufficiently advanced by next week for your father-in-law to see it properly or try the seating, but I am keeping in very close touch with Park, Ward's and will write you immediately suggesting two alternative days when it would be ready for inspection. I was so pleased to be able to put you up the other night; and hope you come again very soon. Yours sincerely, Rothes. | ||
