SpectreCodename for Phantom III.

Re Bkl.21/10.6.35.

There will not be anything like a complete SpectreCodename for Phantom III chassis for Mr. Clark to draw for at least a fortnight. At the moment the Bumper Chassis which he has roughly sketched is the most advanced chassis. I presume therefore that Mr. Clark will not be coming this week-end.

With regard to a blue print of the chassis, there is unfortunately nothing which nearly resembles the final edition of SpectreCodename for Phantom III.

As soon as a chassis is in a suitable condition I will let you know. We can also have photos taken.

The ribbed exhaust manifolds as drawn by Mr. Clark on the engine will be used for the 3 Show cars.
