| Mr. G.{Mr Griffiths - Chief Accountant / Mr Gnapp} Ratcliffe, Blue Anchor Hotel, Byfleet, SURREY. From Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rn.{Mr Robinson} X.7250. X.766. [Handwritten] 7250 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rn.{Mr Robinson}3/MJ. 8.10.30. Thank you for your results. When you have finished the tests on the five radiators, after finishing the bonnet tests we mentioned we should like you to make a repeat comparison between the 6 m.m. parallel square tube radiator and the standard 6/7 1/4" non-dented tube radiator. Will you therefore please fit one of these two radiators to the car by Friday morning. We hope to be down there then with 20-EX. and we should be able to get some towing figures on these two radiators. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rn.{Mr Robinson} | ||
