We send herewith LeC.5279 showing the front apron and front valance for Wraith II, the design of which follows very closely that for Phantom III. The apron has been made tapered in the plan view to facilitate its removal and the introduction of the fabric piping into the joint. The gauge of the apron is less than that for Phantom III and is the same as that used for the present apron on the 25/30 H.P. Ev.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} Att: LeC.5279. | ||
