LVT = Buffalo and Alligator
Quote:
Doesn't look too rusty from the pic. Someone should indeed rescue it - if it's still in one piece. Time does not stand still with the modern scrap man.  Worry about finding the rest of the bits later  If I was single...!  Regards Alex

Its a LVT4A Alligator!
You can pick it 1st by the 2 holes in the side use as foot holds and you can also see the opening for the sloped escape hatch on the upper top side of the hull. Well should definatly be saved as there were only about 30 of them here in Australia. Phil...

Here's an Alligator in Yellowknife but it's quite a bit different.

Now that's one I would love! Is it for sale? Looks like an LVT1. They were used by the Australian Army in WWII but I don't know of any still in the country. Very nice!
