To Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} from Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}

Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}10/KW.8.5.35.

A.H.R. Fedden.

Replying to Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}21/E.1.5.35.

We anticipate that Fedden's car will go to Park Wards on Friday May 10th. You already have a list of his coachwork complaints.

We have removed the cycle type wings and pivots, and the car is now ready for fitting standard wings. The bonnet sides will probably require modifying, but as we do not know exactly what wings are being fitted we are leaving this to the Coachbuilders.
