| 1376 Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /PJH.S/ET. 9th October, 1940. Messrs. Cornercroft Ltd., Ace Works, Queen Victoria Street, COVENTRY. Attention of Mr. J.A. Corner. Dear Sirs, Approximately a year ago you supplied us with some sample wheel discs to suit our 16 x 4 1/2 pressed steel wheels. We eventually approved these discs and decided to standardise them when we are able to make motor cars again. In order to keep our records complete we would like to have detail drawings of these discs. Can you please send us these drawings. We have made a rough drawing of these discs from one of the samples and enclose a print, so that you may recognise the type of disc we mean. Yours faithfully, Enclosure:- 1 Print Rm. {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} 647. | ||
