W/S - Bkl. /300 Ha/Les.7/KW.20.6.35. 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.
