Private challenge:
I am looking for drawings of the ČKD and Praga factories to study, with Hollerith serial number: 38, which was intended for the design of tractors: the Praga T-8 and possibly also the Z type.

Diskuse

The original names of this type of tractor were TH7 or THV7, which were simplified to T-8 at the instigation of a Turkish customer.
