I'm kinda surprised nobody has asked if it's for sale yet...

That's a Clark aircraft tow tractor. We used to have one like that where I work... I had the priviledge of rebuilding it after it sat through the flood of '93. I wish I could remember the model #... but it has a 6 cyl Continental flathead engine (at least ours did), with a 3 speed manual transmission. Ours did duty aboard an aircraft carrier during WW II, from what we were able to find out about it from Clark by running the serial #'s. It will do pretty good wheelies, as several unfortunates found out that no longer work for us

When I worked at the airport back in the early 80's we had an old military tug that was made by Clark. It was very short, but the rear fenders and back were all one piece of cast iron about 10 inches think, kind of like the counter weight of a crane. It was shorter than a VW bug and weighed 10,000 pounds! When the original engine died, our mechanic put in a chevy 350 and a turbo 400 tranny. The thing had a 27 to 1 rear end in it. If you pumped the gas pedal, it would do little wheelies each time you stomped on it. We could move the Fed-X 727 with no problems. I had pictures of it somewhere, but they are long burried in the basement. If I ever come across them again, I'll post them.
