Bored?
I don't think so. This has been the best thread for some time. I like multi-function vehicles. The Schramm engineering staff must have had a blast going to work. Tractors are the epitome of multi-function with PTOs and hydraualics all over the place.
The double bucket arial lift is a "Sky-Worker" made by Correct Mfg. They were also the last company to take over Divco Trucks, the funky home delivery milk trucks, before they went bankrupt The heavy duty style fiberglass buckets and booms were made near me in Lowell, MA. I sandblasted hundreds of those buckets when they came back for repair. The tree guys used to push 3/4 sawn trees over with them. I bought a new 45' Skyworker in 1980 for $17,000. Still have it.
Don't remember seeing any Pneumatractors at Camp Lejeune in 1966. Maybe I was in the wrong place at the wrong time. I did remember seeing alot of the 53 series Detroit Diesel powered stuff. When I got out, I found a 4-53 and put it in a '47 KB-5 IH truck. Still have that too.
I am trying to figure out what that unfocused lump near the tractor's left front wheel is. Maybe a generator or water pump.

Originally the company was called the Cleveland Motor Plow Company which began in 1912, then the Cleveland Tractor Company (1917) and finally Cletrac.
