Real unusual things from trailer washers, motorized wheels, to tank track Rolls Royces
Never seen one before, and something about the age of a black and white photo tells me that these are obsolete
I have no idea at all what this is
Ok, but why take it out if you have to add skis?
Odd stuff on this tow truck
Yup... 1890's and I have no idea what it is
Lenin's 1922 Rolls Royce Silver Ghost
Again, no idea what the motorbike in front is
Never seen a train engine like this... must be for moving train cars around in a train yard
For packing dirt roads?
Early Daytona Beach racers with superchardged Auburns, before NASCAR took over racing on Daytona Beach

Two of the rare Jeeps the (1959) FC 59, but the below is even more rare

Model T tank
Love the motor wheels... I'd so love to ride one! This one was investigated by Hemmings Blog and you can read more about it: http://blog.hemmings.com/index.php/2010/11/22/m-goventosas-one-wheel-to-obscurity/ it went 93mph... I doubt that anyone did that more than once given the conditions of roads in Italy in 1931 to 1933, that's when the above photo was taken, 1931

Cool old russian vehicles!
1913 Russobalt Type-Kegresse

1939–1946. Total 33 840 units were produced. This truck is powered by gas generator that used firewood (or coal) to produce gas that powers the engine. Because of this it has low power and speed, it is difficult to service and not so easy to start up. But because the lack of gasoline in some north regions this truck was indispensable.
Yag -12 all four front tires steer, 1932 to 1941
This is a 1956 4 wheel drive airplane towtruck, and can be switched to just front wheel drive. (only 13 made)
