Which chassis?

[Bill Murray]

Phil:

You may have once again proven that I sometimes jump before I look. Although I stated that CMP's were not my area of expertise, that does not excuse sloppy research on my part.

I assumed that since the pictures in the AEDB did not show an externally mounted spare it must be mounted inside (and in fact some pics showed that). I did not print out all the text pages from the CDs so will have to go back and look at them but I seem to remember a section on tyre equipment and also reading long ago elsewhere that the RF equipped lorries did not, in fact, have spare tyres and wheels.

So, my ID tips were not sufficiently researched, are suspect at best and may only be correct in some cases after the demise of the RF equipment. My apologies, I try to do better than that.

Hopefully, a complete reading of the AEDB book text portions will give me a more definitive set of "tips". Got to print it off first, though as that series is a lot of pages, it is 8 volumes long.
