to be exhibited by "Leyland Motors Ltd. at the Commercial Motor Show -will be two export chassis with newly designed cabs. One is a bonneted version of the Leyland Super Comet 14-ton-gross 'model, the other a Super Beaver four-Wheel tipper with an 18-ton g.v.w.
The bonneted Super Comet has been designed specially for the Middle East and over 1,000 have been ordered by Iran. The chassis is basically the same as the forward-control Super Comet with a strengthened frame and heavy-duty springs. The cab is a three-seater normalcontrol unit and has a double skin to provide insulation.
Changes to the cab on the Super Beaver—this will also be used on Super Hippo models—consist of a modification to the shape of the wings which are now fiat topped and carry paired headlamps. The radiator has been lowered to give improved visibility.
