Honeyman - Retail orders}18/MK.7.4.36. Bentley Brake Temperatures. Your Ref: E/Ev.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork}3/MN.7.4.36. We have arranged for Cornercroft to send a set of five discs by passenger train this afternoon addressed to Mr. Martindale in the Experimental Department. The discs will be unpainted. We accepted them like this to save time. Of course, if ultimately they are fitted to a car they can easily be sprayed. We have no second-hand discs. Hn.{F. C. Honeyman - Retail orders} | ||
