| *204. To Ev.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} from Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Lid.{A. J. Lidsey} c. By.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Lid.{A. J. Lidsey}5/KT. 27.5.33. Re. BENTLEY BODIES. Thank you for your Ev{Ivan Evernden - coachwork}4/25.5.33. in which you have replied to the various points we raised in connection with Bentley bodies. With regard to item (13) we still have the set of wheel discs which were unsuitable for the green Bentley car and will send them away on hearing from you. The road wheel position at the moment is a little uncertain and in the probable event of our having to revert to Dunlop wheels on this car, we think the question of fitting discs is a little easier.
