Dear Sirs, We have noticed with interest the new type of Dashboard reading petrol gauge which you have recently developed. We should like to try this out experimentally. We suggest that the simplest method to enable us to do this is to let you have one of our tanks complete so that you may fit and calibrate this gauge to your own satisfaction. Should you be able to do this we should be glad if you will let us know, and we will make arrangements to forward the tank. Yours faithfully, | ||
