66H S/W To Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} from Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} re WXA-1 Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}26/E25538 This is just to confirm that, unless something crops up to prevent it, I will send Kennett up with the car on Monday. In addition to seeing to the cylinder which appears to be over-oiling, the other points are, I understand: 1. RR.Distributor. 2. Needle bearing steering pivots. If there are any other mfix modifications to be made to bring it into line with production, please let me know. I hope you will be able to let me send Kennett up for the car by Friday week.
