Cox - Advertising Manager} Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst.5/KT.24.9.32. NEW IMPROVED 20/25 DYNAMO AND THREE CHARGE SCHEME. We should be glad if you would let us have some indication as to which cars you wish us to allocate the four sets of dynamos and switches etc. we are now producing to the above scheme. We understand there will be trials cars, and Sir Malcolm Campbell's car. The first set was fitted to Lp{Mr Lappin}'s car, GLN.60, and we now have another set all ready for fitting and would like to know the car which should have this fitted. We will then arrange to send someone down to Cricklewood to fit the complete units to the car in question. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst. | ||
