It's an ex-United Airlines Baggage Tug mad by Clark Equipment...it has a Dodge 230 CID L-head 6, Dodge truck three speed trans, and a HUGE rear axle! (3 ton??) The rear axle has a 2:1 gear reduction on it and I estimate the total ratio to be about 12:1 !!! It goes slow! But it will pull wheelstands in all three gears!!!
