| COPY. The Autovac Manufacturing Co.Ld., Heaton Norris, Stockport. Our Ref. AG/MHR.{M. H. Rigby} 26th April, 1927 B.Johnson Esq., Messrs, Rolls-Royce Ltd., 14/15 Conduit Street, London. W.C. Dear Mr.Johnson, I have been away and on my return find your letter awaiting me, hence reason for delay in reply. Since we introduced the AUTOVAC Petrol Feed System we have improved it very materially and in this connection, with that end in view, we are frequently carrying out our tests. The Apparatus, as fitted to the Rolls-Royce car, is always tested out on cars of your manufacture, which tests we shall continue, and I hope you will have no cause for complaint as to its functioning under any road conditions. Yours truly, (Sgd) Arthur Gastall. Director. | ||
