WRAITH GEAR BOX.

Herewith is FD. {Frank Dodd - Bodies} 133 shewing a stiffened
gearbox extension shaft, which it is desired to try
with a view to eliminating a period.

A rough detail of the piece is required,
to make one off. It should be made to suit the existing
experimental car, to enable it to be tried with the
minimum of delay.
