I am looking for any information on cletrac mg1 tugs. Does anyone have any resources? Any place with parts? Also have a couple of 1940's trucks looking for info on.
I'm new to the site and so far i'm not doing so good on navigating here.
Thx ken

Welcome to the site. Looks like you don't need too much in the way of parts! Most Cletracs are a mess. Jerry Biro, 614-745-1475 will have some parts for your WXLD-3 Herc. Army Jeep parts dealers will have some instruments and lighting that is common. Other than that, you are in an exclusive club . . .

Thanks, I hope I can get the few pieces I need to complete this one and hopefully start the resteration on it. I haven't found but a few that still have tracks and not too many other than that so it is something different and will be fun to show it.

Is there any similarity between the Cletrac tugs and the Clark Airborne dozers?

You need to get rid of that thing.It's no good.I'll come out and dispose of it for you!;-) That is a great looking MG-1.As you can tell by my avatar,I have a fondness for them as well.Bought 1 but never got it home before someone else had to have it.I screwed up.Keep an eye out for me.Try the Cletrac forum (www.cletrac.org) .They have a military Cletrac list.What parts are you looking for?

Congrats on your Cletrac. I have two and between them will have a virtually 100% complete M2 plus an extra set of tracks. Main thing to be aware of is take care of the tracks. There are no replacements. Good luck.

I do watch the cletrac.org and several other sites. If I hear of any others coming up for sale I will let you know. The only remaining items I am looking for are the windshield wiper motor and arm and a battery cover. Other than that I have all the small, normally missing, parts.

Good luck on your hunts. These definitely fit into the unique, rarely seen military vehicle category.

Heya Guys - just to join the fray I just picked up two of these I am restoring and would love to toss around ideas for either parts sharing or making copies of some of the brackets and little bits that are always missing...

Of course both of mine are missing the genset, air compressor, and bottles...

I am also short on headlights...

As always any help is greatly appreciated - I have a decent fab shop with machine tools and a TIG machine so copying items is possible - thanks

Matt

Well then... here you go...

Just got these two and am working on collecting up the stuff to make them go...

Need to get a hold of another carb at some point... and both are missing the parts I mentioned above...

Enjoy...
