UNKNOWN CRAWLER

Post #1 by DAJOCAT » Sun Oct 04, 2015 2:40 pm

Found this picture I made long ago . Must be a UK built tractor .
Probably it was used in the polders as a tractor , because of the long and wide track frames .

Who can tell me the brand and type and engine?

Is this an original factory made LGP tractor ? In the fifties many tractors were lengthened by local blacksmiths in this country .
Thanks in advance , DAJOCAT

Looks like a track Marshall to me, probably a 55 or possibly a 70

Hello Fowlerman , thanks for the answer . Obviously Track Marshall was rather early with factory made LGP tractors . Cat appeared in 1962 or about with the D4D LGP .
Have a nice day . DAJOCAT
