| To Wd.{Mr Wood/Mr Whitehead} from EFC. X4284 b EFC5/T26.8.25. X.4284 - DELCO-REMY BATTERY IGNITION. We would like to obtain if possible for comparison with our own product, an up-to-date Delco-Remy battery ignition contact breaker, distributor and coil, of typical pattern as at present supplied for some American make of car. Could you kindly write to our American people with a view to obtaining one of these. We have seen on the American chassis what is presumably the latest U.S.A. Bosch ignition. EFC. | ||
