Herewith copies of Green's note with reference to Wards' letter CW/GC. October 7th, which I discussed with you last Saturday, October 25th, also a copy of EV{Ivan Evernden - coachwork}/JD{J. Draper - Frames}, written as the result of a visit to Park Wards, to try and see the drawings of the rationalised four light and six light saloon bodies.

Draper's note also gives a list of the experimental bodies.

We are continuing to press Ward on the Myth, but are doing nothing further with the B V.{VIENNA} or senior range bodies until you have decided whether a periodical meeting can be arranged.
