They are nice start for the tranny's and electronics but the drive sprockets and track links do not fit any of the construction vehicles that I know of.

How about a yarder that was built on a Sherman tank that was on that logging show a couple years ago.

My bad :o:o I found a pic of a yarder made from a late Sherman running gear. Only problem with it would be the cost of the chassis. Tamiya Shermans are not cheap- most over $400. If someone used a late Sherman chassis, then there has to be one made from an early chassis. Early Sherman models can be had for around $150 if you can find one!!
