Chassis Tool Kits - Wheel Changing Section.

We are still obliged to carry our large Dunlop Jacks loose in the rear passenger compartment on experimental cars. This causes extreme discomfort to passengers and soils the upholstery.

SpectreCodename for Phantom III 2 is our latest model and example where no provision has been made in the body or on the chassis for the wheel changing kit.
