Cletrac Model F
Hi, [email protected].
Built from about 1919 to about 1922 - the smallest crawler that Cletrac ever built and the only on with the 'string-of-pearls' track roller system - the 'roller's on a chain running inside the main track chain with no front idler or bottom rollers as in 'normal' crawlers.

Just my 0.02.

You have a wonderful day. Best wishes. Deas Plant.

Hi, WA7OPY.
I am only guessing here but I suspect that the 'perpetrator' of this 'total waste of machinery' may have 'ackshully' OWNED it before he turned it into a letterbox stand so I guess he also had the right to do with as he saw fit, regardless of whether you agree or not.

Just my 0.02.

Ray, are you thinking of the next project now that the Twenty-Two is all but done? : ) You know what they say; one is not enough, and a man needs a fleet if he's going big time 👍

I like it, more people see it that way than if it was stuffed in a shed somewhere

Neil, I wish I could say that my 22 is all but done. You know what they say about the last 10% taking 90% of the time. As a reference point, it took me 16 years to complete the restoration of my 1967 Jaguar E-Type OTS. I must say that the wait was worth it, though. See photos below.

Nice thing about that little F model is it will fit in the back of a 3/4 ton pickup.
No trailer required!

What a beauty Ray. I've built a couple of stainless exhaust systems on E-types, a 6 and a 12 and boy that took some time. As you know, there is next to no room around anything on that machine

Testimonials

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
