21-G-IV is about to run 15,000 miles in France, and it should be an opportunity of making a further test on the latest Spectre(Codename for Phantom III) petrol pump petrol tap, green light warning gauge, etc. We should be glad if you would let us have a specification for this equipment, and also confirm that the parts are available.
