FROM CWB

"New PhantomCodename for PHANTOM I" "B" Steering 18" diameter wheel.

This wheel has been tried on several "B" steering "New PhantomCodename for PHANTOM I" cars, including our old Trials Landaulet, and it is agreed that there is no objection to the alteration, in fact, it was not known by the drivers that an alteration had been made until they were asked to report on it.
