S/W. (Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst) X6016 Hn{F. C. Honeyman - Retail orders}19/I/15-11-32. 20/25 THREE CHARGE SCHEME. With reference to Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst2/AD19-10-32, please note Cx.{Major Len W. Cox - Advertising Manager} will in the near future take over another car in place of GBT-9. Consequently, the experimental set of Three Charge Scheme parts should be fitted to the new car, the chassis number of which is GHW-78 and which has not yet left the Works. Will you please arrange as necessary. By the way, on GAU-14, to which a Three Charge scheme has been fitted, it is impossible to switch off the engine when the lamps are in use! Naturally, the parts you fit to GHW-78 should not possess this disadvantage. WST Hn.{F. C. Honeyman - Retail orders} [Stamp: RECEIVED 18 NOV 1932] | ||
