RADIATOR - SILVER WRAITH 80.
Herewith is PD.233 (3 Sheets) shewing the radiator for the above car, which will also be the one used on the first Silver Wraith with a 6 cylinder engine, suitable temporary pipes and fan boss being provided.
The shell and shutters are almost entirely Wraith lll pieces, and the internals are B.lll parts. The tank and yoke have been modified to make them applicable to this car, and to keep the pieces in line they should also be applied to B.lll and B.50.
The chief items are the deepened top tank and the modified radiator yoke.
