re Morris Army Truck type CS.8.

We enclose herewith a set of photographs which we took of the Morris type CS.8 army truck when it was at Park Leys.

The purpose of these photographs was twofold. One to show us such particulars of the truck as might be required for the mounting of the 40 m.m. gun and the other to give us interesting features of design such as rear axle and front suspension for reference purposes in connection with any lorry project which you may ask us to undertake.
