We send you herewith a list of the parts which we wish you to fit to Wor{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager}'s car when it comes into the shop - some of these, as you will see from the list, also will be fitted to Sg{Arthur F.

This list is sent in order to clear up any confusion, and is correct in the light of our present knowledge - it will enable you to ensure that all these parts are ready when we accept the car. We should, however, like to have the induction pipe to Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}2075 (underlined in list) before the rest of the parts are ready, as the results of our tests with same will dictate any necessary further alterations to this pipe.
