Copy to Mr. Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} 1023 [Text Struck Through: RBC/Wrage] [Text Struck Through: RHG/EBG] -------------------- Front Bumper - Wraith II. We send herewith LeC.5386 showing the Wraith II front bumper. As this bumper will be part of the frontal appearance of Wraith II we imagine it will be standardised on the chassis, and therefore it would appear on a list of parts and have a production drawing number. However, for the experimental cars we propose buying such bumpers as we may require through Hn.{F. C. Honeyman - Retail orders} The face depth of this bumper is the same as the original standard Phantom III and in order to save weight we are asking for the thin gauge chromium plated steel face member as now used on the deepened Phantom III bumper.
