For the attention of Mr.Frazer Dear Sirs, The Design Department here are setting out the brake linkage of a Bentley fitted with Girling brakes, but they are rather handicapped through lack of drawings. Will you be so good as to send us a complete set of blue-prints to which you built our brakes, including all detail drawings. If you have any drawings or models of Bowden wire operated Girling brakes, we should be glad to examine these at the same time. We are hoping to receive the front axle today or tomorrow. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED. | ||
