Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}1/MJ.18.3.30.

We propose to fit the Nivex petrol gauge to 23-EX. W. Bell has the necessary parts.
The gauge head is only an Experimental model and will have to be fitted to the dashboard temporarily.
The standard K.S.Gauge could be fitted in the place provided in the dash, to be used in case of the failure of the Nivex.
