I forgot to add this one. A few years back I went to another farm auction in Strawtown IN. This guy farmed over 1000 acres back in the day and was always tinkering with modifying tractors and equipment to get the job done. He built F20s with ford flat heads and other engines and even had a W9 that had a GMC sreamer engine in it etc. Had TONS of them sitting out in the woods when they were spent. Well, he had 2 crawlers that were supposedly built for the military during WW1 to haul howitzers through the mud in France. War ended and the Army cancelled the contract for these crawlers. Some how this farmer got hold of them and they looked to be low hour machines. Not much built up grease and dust on anything I remember. They had Holt under carraige, A large Winton car engine possibly 500 CID or bigger, and the armor platearound the engine and in front of the radiator was made by Diebold Safe company. Real neat machines. The leather fan belt had rotted off one of them and the fan was turning in the breeze. Bad thing is they sat out in the woods for years but still looked like they could be made to run again. It was steered by a T handle and the poor driver sat way out in the open with no proctetion from snipers whatsoever. One guy bought both of them and I think they went out west somewhere. I would like to know more about them if anyone knows where they went.
