CKD packing in 'Units of 24' ie for 24 trucks
I have a document titled 'Boxing - Australia' dated 15 August 1941, for the supply of C018QF 158 inch WB 3 ton 4x4 trucks with full cab. It lists the packing method for 24 complete vehicles (less rear bodywork and spare wheel assembly) broken down by box contents, number of boxes of each size, box sizes and weights for each box type. Total shipping volume is 5,888.6 cubic feet, total weight is 179,620 lbs.
For example:
Frames (chassis) were boxed 6 per box, in 4 boxes = 24.
Engines were three per box, 8 boxes total = 24.
Wheels and tyres (96 total) are listed as 'loose' and not boxed.
