If it is WWII era, probably a Clarke-Air dozer, they dropped them on Pacific to build airstrips ect.

If that's one of the little Clarkair/Clarkaire types, Google Clarkair and a history site should come up, detailing how original design was by a Forest Service ? guy before WWII.
You can search Clarkair in the archives here and a raft of posts will come up; very interesting story, and a fair number apparently still around.
