I-1 A NEW range of steel-framed, lightalloy bodies mounted on Highway semi-trailer chassis has been introduced by Hazlemere Motor Co. (Waltham Abbey) Ltd. The vans are not frameless, but the company has succeeded in keeping the unladen weight of the singleaxle, 12-ton model down to 3 tons 4 cwt. and has at the same time produced a rugged unit which should provide long and trouble-free service.
A van shown to The Commercial Motor last week is to be used for demonstration purposes and has the following internal dimensions: length 26 ft.; width 7 ft. 5.5 in.; and height (at cantrail) 7 ft. 6 in. One of the features of bodies made by this company is that the rear door pillars are manufactured to enable the full inside width of the body to be continued to the extreme rear, facilitating the use of mechanical handling equipment.
