WRAITH AIR INTAKE BEND.

With reference to the clamp bolt on the above.
This should be fitted at right angles to the choke spindle.

Unfortunately a few of the first 24 chassis have left the erecting bay fitted up wrong.

Will you please have these correct in due course.

The matter has been taken up with the erecting section on production.
