With reference to ROY{Sir Henry Royce}/Msl/P19.3.29. The telegage for use on the above series is the K.S.180P. consisting of a dashboard unit, pump, triple pipe line and tank unit. The final design has not yet been approved for the pump or the tank unit - we are waiting receipt of Hobsons final modifications. These parts cannot therefore be ordered at present - it will be realised that they are parts which will be fitted after the chassis have been completed, the delay need not hold up any other part of the chassis.
