Interesting carrier conversion ??

[ron]

Seems by the number of PM messages there is quite a lot of interest in this machine firstly it was converted by two brothers just after the war to use in a saw mill, to haul logs, the standard carrier would not do the job that they wanted to do, it was converted to a skid steer machine by using the drive line from a Marmon Herringto two man tank, as we all know this drive line is about as scarce as rocking horse s..t this information was told to me by a son of one of the brothers, I am still trying to track down the rest of the tank, who knows it may still be out there in the bush,its very thick in this area, anyway here are a few pics for anyones interest, No Keith there were no numbers on this machine as you can see the rear end was removed to fit the Marmon conversion,also the wheels are the narrow pattern, well I hope this is of some interest, Regards Ron, PS it was fitted with British track.
