Default Good Pics...

Note the examples... the first pic is the later LVT4, with the 7-cylinder radial mounted right behind the drivers (the racket must have been positively unholy), but allowing a dropping ramp which permitted the loading of vehicles.

The second pic is of the earlier LVT2, with the same engine mounted at the rear of the vehicle. All cargo and troops had to be loaded/off-loaded over the sides.

Thanks Mark, good finds. Precious little on LVTs (as WE used them) is available.
