X260 To Bn.{W.O. Bentley / Mr Barrington} from Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}1/KW.3.4.35. PER BAG. With reference to the high compression cylinder head for your car, this will be ready on Thursday, but we should prefer to fit it when we fit a new set of road springs which we have got for your car. We also want to re-line the clutch with material which has been standardised and do one or two other jobs. Therefore perhaps it would be better if you brought the 20/25 up and let us have your car when we have the road springs ready. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
