re: RAYMOND MAYS.

Replying to Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}6/E.4.11.36., Raymond Mays' car goes to the local Coachbuilders to-day. They have to repair a wing, and stop some body rattles. The car should be ready for delivery on Tuesday.

If the Trials car which he is now using could be brought up by the man who collects his own car, we could then arrange for the Trials car to be left with Staniland while we make the proposed modifications.

I have spoken to Staniland, and he assures me that he cannot reproduce the jagger, which means that his car is not un-usable.
