re 88-LC -- Trials Saloon

We shall be glad if you will send the wheels and tyres from off the above car to London if a car should be leaving Derby during this week. We understand that 71-SG{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}, ex St.{Capt. P. R. Strong}, will be coming to London; perhaps you could arrange for the wheels to be put on this car.

We do not wish to send 88-LC to Derby for this purpose as the car is urgently required for Olympia tests, [strikethrough] TRIALS [handwritten] and in order that work at the Coachbuilders can be carried out.

Will you kindly do all that is possible to hurry the wheels.
