To Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} 1021 Ev.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork}10/JH. 26th. June, 1940: Messrs. Park Ward & Co.Ltd., 473, High Road, Willesden, LONDON.N.W.10. For the attention of Mr.C.Ward. Dear Sirs, Some time ago you sent us the enclosed patterns in conjunction with our choice anf finishing instructions for the Silver Ripplet 2.R.2. We are now returning these as requested. You most probably have communicated with Mr. Robotham's department as to progress of the coachwork for 2.R.2. modified on the lines recommended during our visit, but we have not ourselves heard how this is going on. You may be interested to know that the photographs which were taken of the mock-up are quite satisfactory. Yours faithfully, CHASSIS DESIGN OFFICE. | ||
