| To Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} c. to Ev.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} c. to Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/EAG. c. to Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Wym.{G. Harold Whyman - Experimental Manager} Drawings of R.R. & Bentley Cars at Messrs. Park Wards. During our visit to Messrs. Park Wards Thursday 16th. October 1941 the question of the full scale drawings of the R.R. & Bentley models arose. Unfortunately none could be found as they were stored away under a pile of wood. As most of these drawings are the only records we have of Exptl. car bodies, it is agreed that they should be brought up here. The attached list gives the particulars required to enable Park Wards to sort the essential drawings out. Ev{Ivan Evernden - coachwork}/JD.{J. Draper - Frames} | ||
