16th September 1940.

Messrs. LUCAS Ltd.,
Great King Street,
BIRMINGHAM.

Attention of Mr. B. Grupper.

Dear Sirs,

We notice in the Automobile Electricity that you fit a "C.5.HV. type" dynamo to the LAGONDA, and that this machine is of the constant voltage type and will give an output of 17 amperes.

We should be very grateful if you would loan us a machine of this type or, failing this, supply us with full particulars of dimensions etc...

Yours faithfully,
