Rolls Royce, Ltd., D E R B Y. Dear Sirs, For the attention of Mr. Robotham. By the end of next week we shall have completed all the parts for GIRLING BRAKES for your front and rear axles, and we should now like to know what you would like us to do. As there are no internal parts in the rear axle, will we send rear axle up to you, so that you can fit internal parts in, and then return it with the chassis or experimental car which you are sending to us, so as to complete the system. We should be very pleased if you will drop us a line and let us know your intentions. With many thanks. Yours faithfully, for NEW HUDSON LTD., [Signature] WORKS MANAGER. | ||
