Sidgreaves - MD} has passed me your BY/Cgh.{W Clough}1/MC30.7.36, and with regard to your suggestion that you should send to LH{Mr Haworth} two sets of carefully selected valve springs for 34-EX and Lord Portarlington's car, we agree and should be glad to receive these two sets of springs at your early convenience. We will also arrange to have the valve springs removed from one or two of the early chassis which are still at the Coachbuilders and have them returned to you for examination, when no doubt you will either send them back or replace them as you may consider necessary.
