Phantom 3 Oil Filler.
Please receive herewith:-
LoC.4832 showing a larger oil filler as requested by GWH. {George W. Hancock - Head Chateauroux}
This calls for a crankcase alteration and can be introduced when convenient.
We have not altered the filler cap because the other cap, i.e. the Bentley is costly.
