PHANTOM III TAPPETS & CAMSHAFTS.
BY/SB{Mr Bull/Mr Bannister}4/MG21.4.39

It so happens there is a car of this type on the point of completion in the Repair Department; the chassis number is 6-AZ-124, and it is an ex-Inspection car which met with a severe accident.

You can use this for the purpose of your experiments with the hydraulic tappets.

We hope you will not keep it longer than you can help because, of course, the longer you keep it the bigger the market depreciation.
