You may recall that Mr. Roberts, owner of chassis 79-TW, offered us a trial of a dozen sparking plugs of French make recently, and that this offer was accepted by you. Mr. Roberts has now telephoned to enquire if our tests are complete with regard to these plugs, and if we can tell him what we think of them. This was the case, you will remember, where the English Patent Rights were for sale. Bt.{Capt. J. S. Burt - Engineer} | ||
