Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} Levallois Sr/VA4/ET.15.3.37 Re: CHASSIS B.48.BN{W.O. Bentley / Mr Barrington} - ANDRIEU We thank you for your D/BP/WK.II/JP.II.3.37. The above car is at the Coachbuilders minus a large capacity oil pump and necessary pipes for same. Owing to an accident etc.., the above car has been out of service since the 10th October last. As Mr. Andrieu wants it for Easter without fail, we hope that a new oil pump and necessary pipes will reach us not later than the 22nd or 23rd instant at the very latest. As soon as Works have some pumps completed, we suggest that the one we need for the above car should be sent by air mail. Sr/VA. [signature] | ||
