X877+ F8770 For the purpose of keeping records, it would be a great advantage if the Phantom sports chassis was given an EAC. number. We are likely to have a number of changes in the sports car which it would be very confusing to keep records of unless there is a distinguishing number. As WW. allot the numbers, we recommend that they give us a number for the proposed modified Phantom. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} | ||
