Dennis F105 (diesels) were also supplied to Hong Kong. Were 105s export only?

Dennis did not supply Bombay with an F105, they supplied a Dennis F25 Chassis No:101F25B on 21/1/58 via Robert McLean & Co Agents, this had a 100gal tank and was supplied with a 50ft Bayley Escape, they also supplied a Dennis F26, Chassis No:
152F26H5 on 25/2/64, i have no details of bodywork, via Robert McLean & Co, so this machine is either the F25 with a different Escape or the F26. Re:Dennis F105, one to Hong Kong as you say, the other two to Lanarkshire.

Ed: you may be confusing Brunei and Bombay?

My apologies Dennis did supply Brunei with Dennis F105A 9/62, 200 gallon tank, 50ft Merryweather Telescala, it does not appear on Chassis List, but is allocated a Works Production Order No:41706, so probably 104F105A. I did mix up Bombay & Brunei a senior moment!
