P.II BATTERY.

Answering your EV {Ivan Evernden - coachwork} 4/20.3.33. we cannot agree to the use of a standard plate battery on the 40/50 such as the 3.EMll-A. {Mr Adams} National, but we have batteries which we have arranged with R.R. features inside and if you will kindly let us have the maximum overall dimensions you can allow for each 6 volt unit. We will advise a suitable battery at the earliest possible time.
