| X6018 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst.1/AD. September 4th, 1931. The Joseph Lucas Research Laboratories, Well St, Birmingham. For the attention of Dr. E.O. Turner. Dear Sirs, In order to satisfactorily complete our tests of the ignition units you have kindly submitted to us for test and report, we shall require another set of contact points for the distributor. We require these as we are carrying out tests using both our own coil and the Lucas coil. With regard to the tests your research dept. are carrying out on our own ignition equipment, please do not hesitate to apply for any spares you may require in order to complete the tests at your end. If you send these contact points, kindly mark them for the attention of the undersigned. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED. | ||
