| 82677 To BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} from ROY.{Sir Henry Royce} c. to RG.{Mr Rowledge} c. to Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} ----------------- ROY{Sir Henry Royce}5/MG20.11.31 AMAL PETROL PUMP Further to ROY{Sir Henry Royce}5/MG4.11.31, the makers have now sent us a sample of the actual Pump itself, which is handed to BY herewith, and which perhaps he will kindly pass on to RG{Mr Rowledge} and Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} in due course. We can buy this unit complete at a figure much less than that for the Autovac - apart from the fact that when installing the Autovac we are faced with many other extras, i.e., the Filter itself, the Tower, the Seating, and all the other odds and ends that go to make up the tank in which the Autovac is installed. The AMAL people will gladly come across and discuss the question further if we are interested. ROY.{Sir Henry Royce} SAMPLE herewith. [Stamped] RECEIVED NOV 20 | ||
