[JimM37]

Jim I'll be looking pretty soon it is to hot to do any thing ouside any way.

I found one more it looks to be one from Kincheloe AFB someone bought at an auction.

Thats a snow hauler. Any way thats what we called them. They might have been used for other things but I never saw them doing any thing but haul snow.

 

[JimM37]

I see they had a plow hitch on some of them were they any good at plowing?
I'm assuming they were 4WD.

Hey Ernie,
I found a couple more of those snow haulers in some old negatives from Kincheloe AFB

I will have to speak t my father. Believe he has a book about 5" thick of information on these trucks. We used to have a very ld one before we purchased our newer one. It only did 30mph top speed we had a 20ft snow plow on it. I will see if I can get some pictures of our older truck. I will have pictures of our newer truck tomorrow.

I saw this pair in Lake Tahoe, CA airport a few weeks back. Looked to be in very good shape.

Hello WT-2206 and snowplow lovers I finally finished the book here,s the cover and where to go to get it, lots of history, specs, stories , drawings and loaded with color photos. You have to paste the link in the long address bar on top because it hasn't populated enough for a Google search.
