Next Project Price? Snow Trac or other?

Starting to think about my next project. Tucker has one more year of restoration and I should be done.

Don't plan on ever selling Tucker but what I want is a twin track with some more speed and can sit 6-8 people for cruising. Wouldn't need to pull a drag but would be a good option.

Snow Tracs look cool. Not sure of the price or parts available. Open to any other machines. I like vintage also.
 
for speed you really have 2 options 600 Thiokol or snow trac the Thiokol will be faster but parts may be a little more difficult to come by. the Thiokol will also drink a lot more fuel. snow tracs have their weaker areas as to the 600's the achillies heal for the Thiokol 600 is spindle size you bounce the front end around too hard and you will break the spindle the little super imps seem to be neat little rigs . they too seem to be getting kind of hard to find things for. with the inline 6 cylinder ford engine ,parts engine parts should be an easy find. pm me I can give you the low down on the weaknesses in the snow trac's if you want I probably have more hours on the trail in mine than about any one else, except for Lyndon you will not set any speed records in any thiokols with drop boxes hopefully next winter I can tell you how my fix for that works.
 
I do like the snowtrac look. Are there any out there available? Parts? Looks pretty basic and it appears VW parts work? Same motor?
