These will comprise Watford clock, speedometer, ammeter, thermometer and pressure gauge. The speedometer will read as previously up to 90 m.p.h. and they should be calibrated to 800 revs/mile. We also require three red lamps for these cars and three complete telegauge units with cream faces but black casings to KS.180. The green lamps we have already ordered separately. The two cream faced instruments we have previously ordered are 20 HP. and have nothing to do with the above order. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rn.{Mr Robinson} | ||
