PHANTOM 'SPORTS' CHASSIS. X8770

For the purpose of keeping records, it would be a great advantage if the Phantom sports chassis was given an EAC. number. We are likely to have a number of changes in the sports car. It would be very confusing to keep records of unless there is a distinguishing number.

As WW. allot the numbers, we recommend that they give us a number for the proposed modified Phantom.
