Raymond Mays: ------------ Attached is copy of a note we have sent to Hd{Mr Hayward/Mr Huddy} about the old car and in which we mention that in addition to the brake drums, the chromium plated wheels and perhaps the Mellotone horns are to be transferred to the new chassis, the number of which we expect to tell you within the next two or three days. Of course, Raymond Mays should have new tyres on the chromium plated wheels of the new chassis, and the present tyres on the chromium plated wheels should be fitted to the replacement wheels for B-24.GA. You may have a set of good secondhand stove enamelled wheels you can fit to B-24.GA. If not it will have to have a set of new wheels. As regards the Mellotone horns you will see from our note to Hd{Mr Hayward/Mr Huddy} that we are prepared to leave it to you to decide whether to transfer these from B-24.GA or to leave them on that chassis and supply and fit new ones to the new chassis.
