Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} Just a note to remind you that I have to go to Gloucester and back on Thursday, so should like to give this car another run. I have to start early, it would be best to have the car here on Wednesday evening. Rge We have not been able Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} to do anything with the prop shaft because it has NO isolated centre bearing. we will fit one of these as soon as we can get the parts. Ru/w YM. | ||
