This month's issue of ACtion (A.C. Owners Club newsletter) contains
several excerpts from articles found in back issues of the journal MOTOR
SPORT describing various AC cars produced between 1904 and the mid
1950s. In them several references are made to term cwt. This is a
weight measurement which is apparently an abbreviation for hundredweight
(or perhaps avoirdupois?). According to the dictionary this is either
100 pounds or 112 pounds. Does anyone know which value would be correct
for this time frame?
