there never were a lot of the #5 & #7 gun tractors and when the 3in AA guns were obsolete they were repurposed into other things.
I have already built the cab and chassis in 1/35 scale and need details of the rear body before going any further. I hope to display this with a resin 3in gun in the same scale alongside the LP3A M-H gun tractor with 18Ib gun which is ready to paint. Cheers Cliff ![]()

This one had been around the melb club for 30 years to my knowledge. Past down the family to grandson Luke. Luke shared these pics a month ago on Facebook.

That belonged to Ken Morris. He used M-H just after the war in the logging game

Thanks Euan but those are of a later model and it is the rear wooden body of the #5 & #7 gun tractors that I am really after details on, as the first photo in my thread is the only one I have and it shows only the left hand side not the rear or right hand side of this unique truck
