pretty sure it was one of the rare two ever made the tires match and the bolt holes all along the top of the frame match with the picture as well. I am glad I saved my poor little dumper as there were only 200 made !! I wonder where the rest of the truck is or was ? It said it was very heavy guess that is why it was scrapped..

I DO NOT think it is a T29/T35, it states that it was CHAIN DRIVE, LOOK at the first pics, it is not chain drive but shows differentials with power divider, and the rear hubs dont match , the tires match ?????

IT is a T35E1, timkin bogie rears with 18.00x29 tires, the t35 had 18.00x25 tires,( supposed to be 18.00x25), ONLY one was BUILT

Im no equipment expert but by looking at those axles the hubs remind me of the type of axles found on big front end loaders looks like it wasn't designed for speed
