BODIES FOR LEFT-HANDED PHANTOM 11 CHASSIS - Whr{Mr Wheeler}1/D6.3.30.

We are sending DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}/EW detail prints and arrangements for both types of subframes suitable for left hand steering chassis. At the same time we would point out that it is most important if this arrangement is made with America that they must use subframes, that we have a test body made up with a subframe in order to enable us to run the chassis under such conditions, as difficulties may arise if we test only on bodies with subframes and America run without the subframes.
