Wraith III - Exhaust Suspension.

Please receive herewith:-

Lec.5752 showing a redesigned suspension which consists of hanging the silencer boxes on rubberised fabric strips. There are three strips as shown, and they are all of the same size.

It will be noticed that we call for some special square plates which are indented to hold the fixing securely to the strips.

These we suggest should be bought out as they are cheap, and we have copied them from the Vauxhall parts. The plates are marked C and F Ltd, but we do not know who this is.

The above design can be fitted to both the Wraith II, and Wraith III chassis; if the body is in position it will require some ingenuity to make it applicable.
