| 300b S/W To Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} from Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} re Continental Chassis. Referring to Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}8/R.18.12.36 I note what you say about delivery. I had already given instructions about this and all other experimental chassis being carefully weighed in and the complete car weighed out so that we can in the future have accurate actual weights instead of estimates and calculations. As a matter of fact I am trying to get this done fairly regularly for ordinary production chassis and cars as well. Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} | ||
