| Re Single Plate Clutches. file TBB/M1/L30712. Mr Royce 30.7.12. Acting on your instructions received through Mr Barrington, I have made a search through various recent Motor publications and am enclosing here-with cuttings referring to the following cars :- De Dion-Bouton (three) Rover Albion (Two) Murray. In addition to these I have found references to the Panhard and Arrol-Johnston clutches but unfortunately we have on hand no loose copies of these suitable for cutting up, I have however ordered copies from the publishers and will forward these to you on receipt of same. I shall be glad to know if these are sufficient for the purpose you have in hand or whether you desire the search x964 | ||
