Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

Coachwork Conversions Ltd, Winsor Street, Colne, Lancs.

A new Freightbox aluminium van of 775 cu ft capacity, shown mounted on a Leyland Terrier 750 chassis, provides an unladen vehicle weight of 2 tons 19.25cwt and has side panels of ribbed sheet which obviate the necessity for horizontal frame members between the posts. The panels comprise 8aco Pan-al-rib 2 sheets which are no thicker than standard flat sheet.

A shorter 14ft version of the van on a Bedford KD chassis also has a capacity of 710 cu ft and affords an unladen weight of under 3 tons despite the fact that flat panels are employed. A Luton under 30cwt van of 540 Cu ft capacity is shown on a Transit 175 petrol-engined chassis/cab, and a 500 cu ft Luton van on a Commer 2500 chassis /ca has special extruded cant-rails with a bi. radius designed to prevent roof damage fror tree branches and so on.
