Please either email Hi Res untouched photos to Jif or myself for inclusion in next years calendar as this vehicle would look nice as one of the twelve needed for it.  |
Cliff..
That is an immaculate and extremely rare 11 CAB gun tractor..
Walter Brand has owned it forever and used to drive it to high school..He kept it and it took years but Albert Bain and Walter and Walters son rebuilt it from next to scratch..
Albert is a master tool and die maker and can make anything out of metal and between the three of them they built all the fittings,panels,boxes and parts required to put that beauty together..
I had the pleasure to hear the story first hand from Walter at CC 3 a few years ago,when the lads drove it from Petrolia to Chatsworth(about two hundred miles)..It was in gray primer at the time and I'm happy to see it again..(Take note that it has a current license on it for Ontario)
That should definitely be a cover for your calendar..You won't find any 11 CAB gun tractors as nice as this one..anywhere..
Hope Walter corrects my story ,as time has made me relate this story as I remember it..
I don't think beer would have any effect on my story ,,,would you..??
