WHEN REPLYING PLEASE REFER TO X/BGC/17. 19th September 1940. Messrs Rolls-Royce Ltd. DERBY. Your Ref: RM{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/RC.{R. Childs}2/ST.{Capt. P. R. Strong} Dear Sir, We are much obliged for your communication of the 16th inst. and note your reference to the C5HV type dynamo as fitted to Lagonda cars. Unfortunately we have no dynamo of this type available which we could loan you, but we have pleasure in enclosing copy of our Drawing No.232277 which we think will give the dimensions which you require. We would mention, however, that this dynamo is only intended to cope with a 14 amp lamp load and attach a copy of the output curve relating to this machine. If we can help you in any way further, perhaps you will be good enough to let us know. Yours faithfully, JOSEPH LUCAS LTD. Technical Sales Department. | ||
