EMacionga Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 Anyone know anything about the proto-type Benz-Brauer half-track developed during WWI? It was supposed to have modiifed orionwagen parts as rear end running gear. I have a picture in a book showing a short open topped vehicle with two large solid front tires and a short bed and short V-shaped track with a large drive wheel flanked by two smaller bogies. The track looks similar to modern catapiller or bobcat loader tracks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Runflat Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 The only sources I've found are a side view in "Half-Tracks" by Bart H Vanderveen (published by Olyslager) and the same view in "Kraftfahrzeuge und Panzer" by Werner Oswald (published Motorbuch Verlag). Neither say much of substance with Oswald saying it was powerd by a 45 HP four-cylinder engine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
