Doug,
They used one of these in "Saving Private Ryan". They called it a rabbit.
Cheers

I made a model of one when I was a boy and I saw one in the technical museum in Munich. Wish I had one.

Hi Doug,
they were made for the German Wehrmacht by a little known factory which primarily made motorbikes.
Here is a link:

When i was a kid i used to drive one on a farmers property. He had used it for 30 years after the war for pulling the plough on his fields. Still working perfectly today.
Cheers, Udo
