Hello Eduardo

   I have quite a few good photo's of the Latil Tar Tractor, I will upload them tonight, I am at work at the moment. I think I have a few good drawings as well. I scratchbuild one a good while back, I am also thinging about building one with the double set of tracks as well.
   I am not sure I have much on the Tank transporter version, But I will attach what I have.

All the Best
Tim R

  Dear Tim & Eric, thank you very much(I would love a pic of your Latil,Tim since as I have already told I greatly admire your skill!) The general idea is making it transporting a   scratchbuilt SCHNEIDER CA1  with aplique armor I have ready for painting.
By the way, I am very grateful to ERIC because of the fine walk-around photos he provided to this site´s gallery.They were very inspirative!
 As also I think the pics from the RIFF WAR I attach to share whit you comrades.
Thanks a lot,
EDUARDO

By the way, a new look on the pics led me to think the trucks are RENAULT HEAVY 4 X 4 Transporters, no way, I will take use from a Latil  if necesary since the dio is located in WW1and can´t see why not it could´nt pull a dolly-mounted tank? ah, more pics for You...

Hello,

For my Schneider or FT17, I am waiting for the Knox tractor with La Buire trailer which will be released by Retrokit. I suggested this truck and they took my request into account

All the best

Here is one of the most detailed sites I have ever seen on the LATIL, unfortunately I have been unable to download photos or information from this site.

 So check it out.

All the Best

  Friends,
 Attached you will find and interesting pic from the La Buire trailer, being pulled by...a  Schneider tractor, a rare bird based on the CA 1 reclicled for towing duties, by fitting it with a truck-like cab and of course a  rear box. Also included are  a Renault and a Latil fron the era. Tim!he link is superb! I could download the entire web page,very nice indeed.
In a few hours I am flying to my long awaited holidays, in a week I hope I will be ready for sending some pics about the matter.
Best regards,
EDUARDO

   If you need more, I have plenty.
I have looked for my drawings, but no luck yet.
   If you are interested in the Latil fitted with the chinellie track system let me know, I will email the photo's to you. I am currently working on an article on these tracks.
All the best
Tim R

Hello Eduardo
Looking very much forward to see your Schneider. I'm quite fond of the CA1 and has been waiting for the announced Emhar kit for a few years now. When a kit is being mentioned being in the making I haven't the guts to start scratchbuilding. I'm afraid that the kit will be there before I can finish my own. (As it is even with my slow rate of building, I would probably have finished the Schneider by now - instead I'm still here waiting for the kit). I'm very interested in knowing more of your Schneider - what references did you use?

The Latil TAR is (or has been) available in 1:35 as a resin kit from Azimut, France.

I'm currently stil in the planning stages for my French Campagne locomotive on 600 mm. gauge. Have been too busy working to get started building. Hopefully thus will change soon.

Regards
Claus

By the way,
Those truck photos from the Riff War. Spain purchased 11 Renault FU 25 HAP and a Renault 18 HP. Anyone interesed on FT-17 action from Riff War to the Spanish civil War can consult an excelent study (profiles included) in SERGA magazine nº 30 and 31( unfortunately in spanish)
