re WXA-1

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.
