| 1021 Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}2/ML. 4.12.40. Messrs Motor Body Panels,Ltd., COVENTRY. For the attention of Mr. Smith. Dear Sirs, Further to our visit of last week, we are interested in the possibility of storing part of the tool equipment for the production of the Park Ward - Rolls Royce body pressings. We believe we may be able to find a safe storage space for at least the wooden jigs and possibly also some of the cast-iron tools. We shall be glad if you will let us have a list of the jigs and tools, together with their respective part numbers, at present stored in your Factory, and also their approximate bulk and weight, so that we may give the matter further consideration. Yours faithfully, for ROLLS ROYCE LTD., | ||
