Re: Springs for Bentley, Pivotted Brake Shoe. We have not as yet obtained new springs for the pivotted shoe. The spring manufacturers are too busy, and it will be some time before we can obtain them. In the meantime you could obtain the springs in Paris from the same source as obtained for me. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/GWH.{George W. Hancock - Head Chateauroux} | ||
