Rolls-Royce Limited, D E R B Y Your ref.Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/CTS.{C. Trot Salt - Carburation}8/MH{M. Huckerby} Dear Mr. Robotham, In reply to your letter of the 1st instant, reference as above, I am sorry to state that we have no Twin Vertical Stromberg carburetter in stock. The one I referred to was a Twin French Carburetter, the 42 DUS. There has been so little demand for Twin Vertical carburetters that we have not stocked any now for some time. The only Twin Vertical Stromberg that we can find is the U.U.3 and we have ordered one of these from the States for you. I am sorry to be of so little help but it is years since we had an order for a Twin Vertical Carburetter. I have also written to the States to P.T.O. | ||
