Default Morris 6 wheeler on test circa 1928

Seems that Morris were keen to flog these off to the colonies .

The promotion effort was not a success as very few were sold in these parts .

These had the war dept, articulating rear axle as designed by the boffins . In time of war , the vehicles were to be made available for the army to use , the rear axle patent was offered free to entice manufacture .

Another page , circa 1940. mentioning the CS8 15 cwt trucks Aussies had on issue in the M.E.
