re Lucas Dynamo.

The Lucas dynamo has now completed 300 hours endurance run on a bench test. In order to make the machine ready for a road test, will you please arrange for the machine to be stripped, thoroughly cleaned, the commutator skimmed, and the bearings examined. A new set of brushes will be supplied by us.
