Default Query

I know nothing about guns but 18-pounders makes sense judging by the pre-war Canadian papers relating to the 1937-8 Ford-Scammell and Chevrolet-Scammell tractors. The drawings for the bodies were supplied to Ottawa from the Royal Arsenal in Woolwich so this explains why they are so alike.
As it turned-out the 6-wheeler gun tractor was destined not to proceed and by 1939 the 4x4 tractor was the preferred option.
