Wraith II Front Wing.
We send herewith LeC.5262 (2 sheets) showing the front wing for Wraith II.
The valance over the frame to prevent mud entering the engine undersheet and the frame itself, will form the subject of a separate scheme.
This drawing will enable you to complete the side panels of the bonnet which should be left long so that they may be cut off by the Coachbuilder.
