Default CS8 Portees in desert
Yes a parts list dated as early as 1936 refers to CS8 Anti Tank models .

I own three CS8's in various states of rustiness ! The size of the rear springs and axle indicates the truck is capable of carrying much more than 15 cwt ........

I am currently rebuilding a carby from one of these , its a updraft Solex thing made from brass and white metal , it has no accelerator pump in it , but a huge 3 part main jet .

The following is from Mike Connifords profile on Morris CS8's
