This is only half A-C, but got quite a bit of attention this year. It is an Allic C engine married to a small Cletrac transmission and track assembly. The build was immaculate and it ran very well. Ya gotta love the creativity.

NICE!!! I have an OC46 undercarriage and a 47 WC parts tractor that would go good together. ------------- http://www.ae-ta.com" rel="nofollow - http://www.ae-ta.com Lena 1935 WC12xxx, Willie 1951 CA6xx Dad bought new, 1954WD45 PS, 1960 D17 NF |

Because the side rails support the engine front and back, the C torque tube could be used. It was simply cut off at the length desired with the front of the C driveshaft mated/coupled to the rear of the Cletrac driveshaft. A guard was then made to cover the coupling. Simple, and pretty ingenious.

My taste would be for an M crawler looking seat back and sides on top of the seat suspension, but it's still a nice piece of craftsmanship.
