Marles Steering on Spectre(Codename for Phantom III) II -
10,000 Miles Test.

We have examined the working of the two experimental Spectre(Codename for Phantom III) steering cams with zero and 0.002" of crowning respectively, and as a result we wish to have the 0.002 cam fitted to Spectre(Codename for Phantom III) II.

Will you please build up Spectre(Codename for Phantom III) II steering with this cam.

HS {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /F.J.Hardy.
