I dont know, want me to stop by and see if anyone is around?
Sure! any info on something like that helps out.
Seen in Medicine Hat, Alberta--and it is for sale
That snow bear looks like a modern day version of the Bombardier b-12's.

It appears to work on the same principal. Only smaller & uses regular snowmobile parts by the look of it.
OT.

VERY EXOTIC! We stopped and talked to the guy who has this. His name is Don ( he is a former thiokol employee!!!) and he build this! Tracks are his one off creation. He also build the plow from scratch.. He has heat, A/C, and cruise control (which he frequently uses!)..the tracks now have over 4000 miles on them and it is capable of sustained 40 mph speeds!
I am going to try to get him to join our little group here and write about his build!

very good post, sofaloafer it looks like he may have used a plastic material
for the cleats? and the same for the sprockets? the design is some what like the unitrack units, the military had, there is a post on here somewhere, they rode on the wheels like that under the sprockets, but they thet had all rubber tracks the only thing he needs is a stop to keep them from catching the fenders........ very cool build........

Well the front half looks like a late 70s early 80s model tucker 1342, 1642 or maybe 1542-ME and it looks like they made a passenger cab for it...
Nice find..

Yup...no mistaking Kristi pink......
....and Boggie can prove this too, since he's probably got the correct paint codes for every snowcat out there listed in a master book at his shop....
I believe it's listed in alphabetical order under Purdy Pink...yep......right there....Kristi Snowcat
