Mike, my .02 worth...
Without a close examination it is certainly hard to tell. I would hazzard a guess to say not, as I believe the tippers were on 30cwt and 60cwt chassis, thereby being a reather long dumpbox. Unfortunately I don`t have my Gregg books handy to check as a cross reference. Another oddity in the picture is the 20" wheels, either an afterthought or possibilities that this is a gun tractor chassis. It seems to me that many of the gun tractors were chosen to only be cut up and modified into all types of gadgets. I suppose this was due to the un-usable body type but the heavy duty frame, fairleads, two speed transfer case and integeral winch setup. I have seen many of theses oddballs during my years of mv enthusiasm, everything from forklifts to boat lauchers to mobile yard cranes and snowplows. Unfortunately for us the poor FGTs are seldom found in "as was" condition...
