Sidgreaves - MD} Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} Cx.{Major Len W. Cox - Advertising Manager} RHC.{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer}3/FH.17.2.39. WRAITH PERFORMANCE. With reference to Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}10/E.10.2.39. if a decision can be made immediately regarding the introduction of Bentley V.{VIENNA} type Camshaft, it will be possible to introduce this modification on Wraith 'G' Series without scrap. If it is not possible to arrive at a decision immediately perhaps it would be advisable to produce 100 Camshafts of the existing Wraith type until a final decision can be made. RHC.{R. H.
