RM{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}5/24/7/35- Dear Banks I had a nasty shock when I saw an exhaust valve out- of one of our Exp Bentleys the other day, the neck is very badly pulled + has reduced in section considerably... I should like to discuss it with you next time you are in Derby. Thank you for your report- re the crankshaft order, I will try and get you another but dont know if this will be possible. Yours sincerely RM{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
