| -2- Wing Lamps. Messrs. J.{Mr Johnson W.M.} Lucas Ltd. are submitting to us samples of a stream-lined and a special ordinary wing lamp, to suit the new appearance of the front of the SpectreCodename for Phantom III. These samples will be available any minute now and will be submitted to Sales for approval. As soon as the design is approved we shall wish you to order twelve sets, and supply us with three sets for the two Demonstration Cars and the Experimental Car. Front Horns. As we presume the horns are part of the chassis standard equipment it is proposed to fit the Lucas Dual Wind-toned Horns on all of the twelve chassis, and these have been ordered. Badges. We note that arrangements for the fitting of these will be dealt with individually. Now that the horns are carried under the head lamps there is ample space on the apron either side of the central fog lamp to accommodate badges. We would be glad to have your remarks on these proposals. EV.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} | ||
