Hello All,

I am not sure whether the following South Australian link leads to the same M4 mentioned in this thread. Accessed 22nd March 2021 from, https://www.military-vehicle-museum....-speed-tractor

If so it might lead to more information about the machines?

In a different link there is an online version of a Technical Manual...Accessed 22nd March 2021 from, https://periscopefilm.com/high-speed-tractor-m-4/

More details of the power train accessed today, https://archive.org/details/TM9-1785B/page/n11/mode/2up

Another Technical Sheet https://www.dday-overlord.com/en/mat...les/m4-tractor

There is also a M4 High Speed Tractor Picture Walk Around - Tracked vehicles - HMVF - Historic Military Vehicles Forum

Another one accessed to day which details one that is for sale in Buenos Aires, Argentina, there are lots of photos in the link http://www.bronzecannons.net/m4allis...rstractor.html

Some being loaded onto a ship in preparation for Normandy shown at either side of the 2:28 minute mark on https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i6Gn8t5eQfg

An M4 in operation in 2011 that is stated in the description as being owned by the American Air Power Museum. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RqJDrWm-MJw

This Youtube clip accessed 22nd March 2021 follows an M4 being restored https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WxAHIdpJfNw
