There is a large family of logging vehicles and pneumatic rock drills built on late WW2 tracked chassises. The majority that I have been able to identify are on M32 ARV lowers, followed by HVSS M4s, and assorted crawler tractors.
What boggles my mind is that the logging companies have a complete secondary industry to repair, rebuild and service these very old vehicles with re-rubbered tracks, road wheels and final drives. And AFAIK, no one in the HMV community knows about them!
