We would be glad if Whr.{Mr Wheeler} would review these accessories and say whether they meet his requirements. This especially refers to the wing lamps as we believe that the Lucas Streamline Lamp is not considered adequate in some countries.

Barkers are sending to Sales samples of the paint and trimming and we would be glad to receive your views.
