Dear Sirs, We are writing to enquire, if you still have dies available for certain pistons previously supplied by you. These pistons were supplied by you and used in E.R. Hall's, T.T. Bentley in 1936. They are distinguished by two extra webs in the crown which join and cross the usual two webs in the aerolite piston. Will you kindly let us know by return if dies and other details are still available for these special pistons. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LTD. | ||
