SECRET. To EV.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} Copy to Sa. RHS. RME. HJS. WFD. W.DDY. W/JAR. Handwritten: 1044 69 Wraith II Steering Columns. It is proposed to abolish the "F" type steering on Phantom lll and 25 H.P. chassis, and we have therefore no desire to use it on the Wraith ll. Would you kindly arrange to abolish 'F' steering as a standard for this car. The available standard steering will be the "C" type and the "A" type which remain unaltered from our Lec.5032.
