Dear Fowler Clark, Thank you for yours of the 30th ult. with further information re Speedometer. I have received the instrument to-day and it is going back on the car but as I am thinking of getting a 20/25 in the early part of the New Year, I shall not run this instrument much more than about 1,000 miles. I could, however, keep it and transfer it to the new car (for which I shall also have a 12/50 ratio) and get some other instrument to go on my existing car when it is sold. Yours sincerely, G R N Minchin | ||
