What can people tell me about this airfield tractor?
It belongs to collector Ian Styles of Temora who has is housed in a large shed along with many other interesting vehicles.
Ian comments this was used on one of the airbases to tow Flying Fortresses and Liberators.
He cringes at the thought of breaking one of the synthetic rubber tracks, so it doesn't get moved much.
He restored it from the remains of two vehicles and says they are quite rare now. He was unable to get the correct grille.
