Was looking through some CD's of pictures I'd saved, and came across these...I have no other information on them. Sorry.

No I think you'll find that the body elevates and tips the load out of the back. Nice pics too thanks for posting.

I don't have the pic from the back, but I remember they didn't have ejectors...I'm thinking it looks like somebody mated an old dump truck box to a scraper tractor. Got some worn out engines in your trucks, and some scrapers that are too far gone to save? Voila! Enginuity at it's finest...
