| X1166 Exptl. Dept. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}12/KW. 21st January, 1936. Messrs. S.Smith & Sons (M.A.) Ltd., Cricklewood Works, LONDON, N.W.2. For the attention of Mr. Nichols. Dear Sirs, Replying to your letter of the 17th inst., we note that the new type Bracket will not be ready for another ten days, and we will therefore wait until this is available. With regard to the second set of Jacks which you mention, we do not wish to have these fitted to a car until those fitted to the dummy chassis have been tested. However, when a chassis is allocated for them, we wish our own fluid reservoir to be used. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED. | ||
