| To Oy. from Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} X43/6 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}5/LG11.2.21. X.3916. X.4210. RE U.S.A. BOSCH MAGNETOS. RE WINTERFRONTS. Will you please let me have all the information you can obtain as regards the running of U.S.A. Bosch Magnetos on R.R. Cars. We should like to know the number which have been fitted* and the approximate mileage they have run. The reason we are asking for this information is so that we can get out standardisation sheets. If we can say that these magnetos have run over 10,000 miles we could get them through with very little delay. R.R. 233A (100 T.) H.S. ('79S. 10-12-20) G 2947 | ||
