Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/AFE.2/MH.{M. Huckerby}

Messrs. The New Hudson Ltd.,
Icknield Street,
Birmingham, 18.

9th.October 1937.

For the attention of Mr. Fraser.

Dear Sirs,

We enclose a drawing FB.3136 which shows in greater detail the expander cone we require for the six sets of front brakes.

We regret that we have detailed the cones of front and rear brakes differently: there is no necessity for this, and we will in future use only the cone FB.3136, which it is impossible to alter owing to the steering geometry.

Yours faithfully,

for ROLLS-ROYCE LTD.
