WTB aktiv sno-trac

Looking to possibly buy a aktiv vw sno trac. Needing work ok. Located near Santa Rosa ca. But willing to travel or ship. Thx Jim
 
there are a couple in Soldotna about 80 n% restored that look to be nice project machines. running with a back haul rate out of Seward to Seattle would set you back about a 500 dollar bill. I talked with the seller once before and he said he could trailer it from Soldotna to Seward no problem.
 
They seem to turn up here more often in the off season. This time of year it is like musical chairs, you better have one when the music of summer and fall stops....

Best of luck to you gentelmen, stay tuned one may turn up here for sale...

Regards, Kirk

I miss read shipping not shopping where in Alaska are you shipping from. I live here in the bush and just shipped a Thiokol 2100 out to the bush.
 
A real nice fella named Brandon has 2 fairly beat up st4's with no tracks in Anchorage. They were in a fire but look mostly ok. I just got some insane ($3000 to move just 1) pricing for shipping to Colorado, Denver. That obviously does not work. I could use some help. Any ideas? Do you think grousers that have been in a fire need to be re-heat-treated?
Thanks again
Matt

I know of Brandon's the blue one wasn't in the fire but was close to it the pics I had it looked real nice. if Alaska logistics has a back haul that would be the best way to get it to seattle and would likely cost less that a grand and because ak logistics ships out of seward Brandon who is in Kenai could get over there with minimal time and expense. try to call Bill Emory 907 444-9070. your other option would be Sampson tug and barge out of anchorage to seattle, also north land services run line haul barges between anch and seattle. the back haul rates are great I used u- ship and got my Thiokol 2100 shipped between moss landing ca to seattle for $1500.00 I thaught that was a fair price. hope this helps you I can also give you contact info on the outfit that shipped my Thiokol if you don't want to use u-ship these folks are friendly and broker loads all over the us.

also I don't think the grousers were in the fire rather the tracks he had already had built were. there was a lot of stuff stored out side there is another one in the same area for sale too it's pretty much ready to run and came out of Brandon's collection to. he's wanting quite a bit more for it.

Brandon knows an awful lot about these...almost as much as you Don. your knowledge is much appreciated. Are all you guys in some Super Secret Alaskan St4 Posse or S.S.A.S.P. for short?
 
I've never met Brandon just talked with him on the phone a time or two in the past he seems to be a good guy and honest as the day is long.

I must have lost my reply to this you can check with Bill Emory 907 444-9070 if Alaska logistics still have runs from Seward to Seattle that would be the way to go. Brandon could trailer it right around to Seward from his place in Kenai ,also you have options with Sampson tug and barge or northland services out of anchorage, they both run line haul barges from Seattle to anchorage all winter last quote I had for one of Brandon's rigs was about 500 bucks Seward to Seattle. I used u-ship to move my 2100 from moss landing ca to Seattle cost me right at $1500.00. I can also put you in touch with a broker that does ltl loads all over the us found them on u-ship. let me know if you need any other info
 
Bill says I just missed his last boat...missed the boat.... Doh! Perhaps your u-ship fellow is my ticket. may I have his contact info , Please.
thanks again
 
you can look at totem express northland services and Sampson tug and barge they ship out of anchorage. Brandon always is looking for a reason to go to the big city to do some shopping. check with one of them about a boat from anchorage to Seattle. Christine at 541 533 2247.you might do a few hundred better directly on u-ship as I missed a great deal on a guy trying to fill an empty space on a trailer I didn't realize I had 48 hours to respond.
 
once you drop it at one of the barge lines it's going in to a can makes it easy to stow any place on the boat. the cool part would be if you could get it rail shipped some where there in the mid west, I still haven't been able to figure out how to use rail assets. with rail you could keep it in the can till you picked it up at the rail head.
 
Seen one in homer AK it was on craigslist Kenai not sure what became of it it was on diamond ridge road it had been sitting he was asking 7500 but motivated when I talked to him. Also Talked to a guy I think his forumforum handle is caribouhills17 ? if I remember right, he just sold a machine out of soldotna (it was on craigslist Kenai) 9500 and shipped it south a nice st4. He mentioned it was used on a reality fishing Alaska tv show. He told me of another complete machine minus tracks for 4K. Try searching him to ask. If anyone is still looking I could try getting ahold of him locally too.
 
I am going to homer might photograph the one there that was on craigslist and get numbers. Heard of another sitting by the Russian village in nikolivesk too, seen it when I was out there looking at some imps but don't remember completely was not infected with the snowtrac disease at the time lol.
