Buick carrier
Permalink   

This web site http://buickcity.blogspot.com/2008/03/buick-experimental-crawlertractor-1918.html has a nice photo of this carrier - espcially if you click and expand the photo.

Interesting features

1  It appears to use a civilian car as the basis (much like the LK series of tanks)
2. There seems to be dome form of articulation as the driver and car body are tilting one way and the tracks and front of the carrier a different way.

Shame about the mortar info!
