Strange Weasel like thing

Post by Arlie » Thu Sep 04, 2003 6:40 pm

Does anybody know anything about this strange Weasel like thing on E-Bay? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayI ... 2431007601
Is it military? Exactly what is this thing?

Arlie,

Fromt the pictures on ebay I would say that this is a 60's thru 70's Bombardier (I don't remember the model designation). The town I live in has one that is an enclosed cab with a plow on the front to do sidewalks. Had a 6 cylinder chrysler engine in it.

I am unaware as to whether the military used these as any type of combat vehicle.

A google search will bring up more of these.

Actually, Bombardier did build a number of snowmobiles for military use, but indeed the one sold on eBay wasn't one of them.

Read more about the Canadian Armoured Snowmobile here - has anyone ever come across a survivor?

If you want a mv that isn't "common" i think you have found one.
I've never saw one like this and i think it's one pile of problems if you need original parts :?
