| X5-30 S/W Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} C3/C29.6.32 Re RESONANCE EXHAUST SILENCERS. ---------- With reference to your Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}1/AD27.6.32, we note that you would like to fit one of the new resonance exhaust silencers to a 20/25 h.p. Trials car so that we may try it in London. The car we propose sending to you is GBT-24 fitted with a full size Limousine, but this car is at the moment lent to Mrs.Stainton, whose car you have had Derby in connection with the gear jumping out. We are hoping that the Works will have completed Mrs.Stainton's car at the end of the week, in which case we can send GBT-24 to you early next week. We will advise you definitely as soon as we get Mrs.Stainton's car back. C. | ||
