To DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}/EV{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} From Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}O/E15.10.30 - 2 steel body that we wish to investigate, one would feel that the best type of car to purchase would be one which is normally fitted with a body of their make. I assume that you will be in town for the Show and I should very much like to see you and discuss this matter, and also if possible look at/ cars at Olympia which are fitted with bodies of this type.
