Abstract: A truck body has two enclosures having inner walls with upper and lower sections. The horizontal distance between opposite portions of the upper sections is less than the horizontal distance between opposite portions of the lower sections. A tailgate is latchable to the lower sections of the inner walls. A truck body has compartments having smoothly curving doors having an outer section and an inner section having a generally vertical inner surface. Generally vertical surfaces are provided on opposite sides of the inner surface for mounting of latch hardware, and, above and below each such vertical surface, a surface adapted for mounting of a hinge. A truck body has compartments, each of which has a front wall with an opening. The opening has smoothly curving edges and an outward-projecting upstanding flange about its perimeter. A truck body has a compartment door mounted to rotate about a horizontal axis, which door has an inner surface including a planar portion having an upstanding circumferential lip.

Abstract: An aqueous polymer dispersion containing polymer particles formed of at least two polymers, the polymer particles of the dispersion having a minimum film-forming temperature below 60.degree. C. and being formed of two different polymers namely polymer A having a glass transition temperature (T.sub.gA) of not more than 10.degree. C., and forming from 5 to 65% by weight of the total polymer; and polymer B having a glass transition temperature (T.sub.gB) of more than 25.degree. C., and forming from 5 to 65% by weight of the total polymer; together with a multifunctional material (C) present in an amount of from 5 to 70% by weight of the total polymer system.
