Thanks, it shows it does not have an engine in the back, behind the cab, as Steve mentioned. So it must be a Chevrolet Earth Borer?

Shown below is a picture of a ACK-353 Earth Borer, according to Vanderveen 100 of these were supplied to the US Signal Corps. It clearly shows the borer engine behind the cab.
