| To Roy {Mr H. Royce - Buyer} /Ms. from Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /Gry. {Shadwell Grylls} 1370 Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /Gry. {Shadwell Grylls} 5/AP.1.12.36. Further to our Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /FD. {Frank Dodd - Bodies} 9/AP.13.11.36. and the fact that Messrs Dunlops have not at the moment sufficient material, we still want to have all the wheels we have asked for. As regards Messrs Dunlops ordering a larger supply of material, you can tell them we shall standardise these wheels if they stand up to the usual road tests in France.
