tucker sno-cat started in business in 1942 and in 25 years ending in 1967, the company had built just about 1200 machines and that includes tow behind trailers

some years were really big in production numbers, other years like 1944, only 1 was built and 1947 had 3 completed.

Would you guys consider doing a similar thread where you post a picture of every model made in a specific year? Or a thread where you show the refinements of a certain model over its run? I think that would be super interesting.

yes, mr Loggah, you are correct, it is a flathead mercury V-8. 1 0f 11 built, 4 in 1947 and 7 in 1948, Timberline Lodge bought a 1948, out your way, mr Fredy Pabst had a 1947

and yes, the Chevy is a good one to have...

Thanks for bumping it up. I had never seen this before. That was an awesome history for someone like me who hasn’t been drinking orange kool-aid for many years. Thank you all for your input and great pictures. Now I need to find (or build) a trailer for the kitten, and start looking for all the hidden tuckers in the east ??.
Well done ladies and gentlemen ???.

if McDonalds took over only 442 and 443 with a side order of 743 would be sold.

For the number of 222 and 743 models made, it is interesting more kittens seem to be known as a ratio of built/still exist.

I would have sworn I saw (up close) a 5 door "freighter" but that doesn't exist according to this. So would that have been a custom like the infamous "Miss Piggy" or a local modification of another model. Radar access Canadian Forces/ NORAD in the early 1980's

Why is the 422 not listed? The Waterville machine made in 1949 was a 422.Just wondering. Don
