I think you mean a "Cletrac"? These were made by the Clevland Tractor
Company. Crismon has a bunch of pictures of ones used for various
airforce needs. Here are some websites showing non military versions,
but they are pretty close to some of the smaller WWII ones.

They used Cletracs in the 1930s and 1940s for logging in my part of the
world. Beautiful one on display at a transportation museum. It was used
for plowing snow (makes current plows look like childrens toys!). The
thing is massive. Not sure what direct connection there is to MVs.
