Nice models. Nice to see some odd ball types being made.

Great
I like the 1938 chevy ute . The army here had some in a open cab/soft top configuration fitted out as radio cars . None of them have survived as far as I know.

3 or 3A
Does anyone know what's the story of the gun tractor at the Australian War Memorial? I have seen it in storage at the annex and at first it seems to be a 3A, with winch. But there is no drive to the winch from the transfer case. Perhaps it is a mix of a 3A body on a 3 chassis?

3A tractor
I don't know if the AWM have more than one gun tractor. The one I saw carried number AIF H-14971, and was in excellent condition. Full marks to Bob Schutt for his work. I was hoping to help Leon out with his winch question, but aren't sure about the winch in that tractor. As the photo shows, the winch isn't connected to any drive (transfer case PTO?), hence my hesitation about it's accuracy.

3a winch
I took a lot of photos from the AWM 3A during my restoration. I obtained a similar winch which I have yet to fit. I can confirm there is no drive from the gearbox to the winch. I will be going over to SA in August to look at the 3A in the museum in Adelaide. I have been told they have all the correct parts between the gearbox and wich so hopefully I can photograph what I need to find or fabricate. There are a couple of bits on the AWM 3A that I am not too sure about, especially the seat. I havenīt forgotten your potos Leon. I am in South America at present for the next mnth but hopoe to get them organized when I get back. Can you send me a PM with an email address so I can forward them.
