WRAITH BUMPER CHASSIS.

Will you please fit a pair of Woodhead springs which are in the Garage Stores with rubber bushes to LeC.5617.

We should also like you to convert a pair of the P.III latest type lubricated damper connecting tubes to replace the rubber links. The P.III links can be cut in two then joined with a piece of tubing to give the correct length. The ends of the P.III tube is identical to the final design for Wraith.
