Dear Sirs, RE HEATING COACHWORK. We have instructions from two clients for whom we are constructing coachwork for Rolls-Royce chassis to fit "The Argen Car Heater" to their cars and there appears to be a little difficulty in arranging the connection for same. We understand from the makers that you are carrying out experiments regarding the fitting of this apparatus, and we shall be glad to hear at your earliest convenience the arrangement that you are making, so that this fitting can be used in connection with your chassis. Yours faithfully, THE CUNARD MOTOR & CARRIAGE CO. LTD. (Sgd.) R.{Sir Henry Royce} MUSSELWHITE General Manager.
