Dear Sirs, We are in receipt of your letter of the 1st inst. relative to 6-Cyl. REMY Coil required for experimental purposes. We wish to take the liberty of asking for exactly what purpose you require this as it will have some effect on the particular type of 6-Cyl. Coil with which we will supply you, and we are also wondering whether by Ignition Coil you mean us to infer that you desire a 6-Cyl. Distributor and Ignition Switch as well. We are glad to advise you that we have several different types in stock, and could supply you with a sample to your requirements for experimental purposes. We will also be able to send you suitable literature. We are, Yours faithfully, [Signature] Consulting Engineer, REMY ELECTRIC CO. | ||
