YOUR REF................... OUR REF.....LTD/CMD Automobile Department. 25th May, 1937. Messrs. Rolls-Royce, Ltd., D E R B Y. Dear Sirs, For the attention of Mr. C.S.Stedman. With reference to the notice in this week's "Motor" on Page 728, regarding the BENTLEY car which won the "Coronation" Gold Star Race at Brooklands at the last Meeting, we wish to draw your attention to the Gallay Radiator fitted to same and which we supplied approximately twelve years ago and which is still perfect both as regards the Cooling properties and the Chromium Plating which looked like new. In addition to the winning car being fitted with our radiator, the Talbot which finished second was also fitted with a Gallay Radiator of considerable age but still functioning perfectly. Neither of these radiators has received attention in any way since we supplied same. Yours faithfully, for GALLAY LTD. L. T. Delaney Handwritten notes: STD hslen Ru/sm | ||
