Morning all,
Lars, your pretty close, they did use Fordson tractor power units, but thats all that is Ford. The rest is locally built. It is a New Zealand manufactured twin powered 6 yd motor-scraper. Approx 20 were built, the bulk in NZ and a couple in Australia. I believe that only one is still complete and possibly workable in NZ and maybe one in Aussie. If anyone is interested, I will post more images and a little history on the company, sadly now closed down.
