I recall several years ago (like 30) an old vet telling me that when he shipped home from Europe in late '45, they met many ships offshore dumping brand new equipment of every type in the ocean. The eastern harbors were full of war materiel that simply was no longer needed and Uncle had no place to store it all. Furthermore, the manufacturers had agreements in place that when the war ended, Uncle Sam would not flood the market with surplus material....trucks, cars, jeeps, you name it....because they wanted to supply the huge demand for new machines when Johnny came marching home. I am satisfied if Uncle had any tractors in inventory sitting dockside...they took the deep six. The vet told me as they passed one ship, they were tossing Jeeps in the drink.
