| Roy.{Sir Henry Royce} From Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst.8/MA.22.3.34. A.T. INSTRUMENTS FOR BENTLEY CHASSIS. Owing to the fact that we have had three consecutive failuresof the trip counter on the lightened speedometer now being tested it will put back the standardisation of these instruments considerably. We are having another instrument prepared by the A.T.Co., and naturally this will have to do its road tests before we can give any promise of standardisation. We suggest therefore that you go ahead and order further supplies of the existing instruments for the Bentley Car. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst. | ||
