Snow Cat Serenade, 2025

I was wondering if anyone would be interested in some of the parts and pieces I have left over from my Tucker rebuild? It would save someone a lot of transportation costs, and keep some of these treasures from disappearing too soon.
I have a 5 speed standard with parking cable in mint condition, and the 318 flywheel. I replaced the muffler, but the original is still in good shape. Various other stuff as I switched to the Holley Sniper EFI.
Advise?
 
with over a month before the Hood River Serenade happens, snow is good, trek master Snow Surfer Sean, has three different wonderful treks, great group of folks signed up, Columbia Gorge Hotel is ready and pleased to host us.

there may be a room left...

thank you everyone that has signed up and pretty sure you will have an enjoyable time.
 
time it getting close for us to meet at Snow Cat Serenade, Hood River, knowing most you folks have been running your cat this winter and hopefully without issues, so, as gentle reminded, take a moment or two, take a serious look at your machine, check fluid levels, tracks, look for loose bolts, etc etc etc, we as a group always want to have a break down free adventure, it always helps to do a little preventive maintenance to make your fun, trouble free.

thank you all for coming and hope it is a good Snow Cat Serenade 2025 for everyone

stay orange and tucker on

(sorry none tucker guys, love ya just as much)

Super excited that the 2025 Serenade is just about here! I haven't had our Tucker on the snow since SVSS 2024, had a few issues but made it through the week in the Sawtooths and spent the summer making all necessary repairs. Been starting it and running it back and forth in the driveway each month to make sure everythings ready. We did get a little snow on us this winter here in Kitsap County. I know the entire Serenade will be great and really looking forward to visiting with folks at the Tucker Heritage Collection Wednesday and then visiting the Cloud Cap Inn for the first time!

Pictures please, lots of pictures and stories. I just attended the antique tracked machine show in NH. Looks like sooo much fun. Makes me wish I owned one.
 
Made it to Hood River, but not easy.
I learned that in Canada (BC anyway) you can pull a 15,000 lb car trailer to a car show, or a 20,000 lb 5th wheel camper, but you cannot pull a 14,000 lb GVW flat deck trailer without getting your truck and trailer inspected.
The fines were adding up to thousands of dollars, but the inspector gave me minimum fine and we had to buy a B.C. permit online for $150.
 
From what I was able to deduce the difference between a flat deck trailer and an RV trailer is you “might” be using a flat deck to make buck. In Canada anyone making a buck is harassed with permits and regulations to extract as much money for the government as possible. No wonder Trump has so much support. The anti-business environment in Canada is out of control.
