From Cokes post, the wheeled tractors linked in pivot steer are Massey Harris. The truck the `command center` came off will be recognisable to some members. The scraper is of a basic design used by a number of agricultral machinery makers in this part of the world, to be pulled with standard farm wheeled tractors
