| R.P.81 S. SMITH & SONS (MOTOR ACCESSORIES) LTD., CRICKLEWOOD WORKS, LONDON, N.W.2. CONTINUATION NO. 1. H.E.West, Esq., 25.1.37. is inadvisable to utilize anything in the nature of a geared attachment. In the circumstances I am arranging with Mr. Russell to make up a new tank unit without gears for test purposes, but perhaps before definitely putting this in hand you will be good enough to indicate for which chassis you would like it prepared. Sincerely yours, Charles Wonnacott | ||
