This column is for Name of Person addressed. Mr Barrington. DATE. 11/4/12 EP{G. Eric Platford - Chief Quality Engineer}33/T11412 RE 38 H.P. 6 Cylinder Daimler car. With reference to the above car which was taken in part payment for a Rolls-Royce from Mr Bolton, now in our Experimental department, at present there does not seem to be any special necessity for us to keep this and I am therefore considering arranging for the sale of same. Before doing this I shall be glad to hear from you whether Mr Royce or anyone else desires us to take any records of same other than those we have already, ie of the axle, power etc. If we do not wish to make any further experiments with same I should certainly say sell it as at present it is so much money lying idle. E.P. This sheet must be filed with the correspondence to which it refers. | ||
