Dear Sir, Thank you for your letter of the 5th March. Before considering the possibility of fitting your invention on one of our engines we are wondering whether you could demonstrate it to us on an actual car. If this is the case, we shall be glad if you will pay us a call when next you are in Derby. Yours faithfully, For ROLLS-ROYCE LTD. | ||
