U-7144T White-Autocar 4ton tractor.

The linked article actually alludes to its identity as an U-7144T 🙂

Thanks Denis,

No problem with the tractor, it’s a Federal 94X43 4-5-ton tractor 4×4. I was looking for informatior regarding the fuel semitrailer. Couldn’t find nothing on it!

Hello,

Anyone nows what is the status on the airship gondolas? I read that the skyship was sold for 80£, but I didn’t see anything related to the k-88 K-ship blimp car.

Anyone has some info?

single axle caravan

From the rotabuggy jeep, assuming that the wheelbase is the same taht of the normal willys jeep, 80 inch., scaled from the photo above, gives a 188.5 inches to the caravan lenght. Assuming the distortion on the photo angle and depth, I consider 190 inches to be a credible dimension. Based on this I’m thinking do draw a plan of it, at least, exterior views, as I barely had seen any photos of the inside.

If anyone can give a contribute, please do!
