W. Frost - Coachwork Inspector}10/CG.19.1.34., second paragraph we have a pair of instruments which have been modified as suggested and as these are of no further use to us we could supply these for Captain Eric Burt's chassis the cost of the same being credited to our order number. With regard to the speedometer we are not quite sure whether the revs per mile of the instrument will be correct for Captain Burt's chassis, By/CGH.{W Clough} will supply this information as we have no knowledge of the axle ratio.
