To Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from Sg. {Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} re 'Vulture(Experimental 6 CYL OHV LONG STROKE / Aero Engine)'.
Copy to Weng

Sg {Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} 1/E17.11.33

Referring to Sg {Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} 1/E10.11.33 and my conversation this afternoon, I have made enquiries and I understand that no body is actually on order. Apparently it has been talked about but that will not give us the body and, if the chassis is going to be ready by Christmas, it looks as if it will be waiting for the body.

Will you please, therefore, chase Ev. {Ivan Evernden - coachwork} up about this?

Sg. {Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}
