Great video! A real blast.

About 30 years back the buddies I ran with found a White's Half-Track in the hills outside Oakland Oregon. The front cab and rear drive was all that was remaining. We had heard word many times over the years that the White's were modified and used in the timber industry. The owner said his father had used the rig many years ago. He said more parts might be on some of his property that was used as a dump for scrap. We went up there and found the armored box and the rest of the parts to make it whole. Took about two years but it was completed. The most harrowing ride was coming down a hill on a long road where we got it up to 55 MPH! Good thing we didn't throw a track! Not to many today can make that statement.
