Wanted to buy: a set of tracks for my M29 Weasel. I'd prefer a Staman International kit if anyone has a set (currently out of stock), rebuilt Liberty tracks, NOS or any other new option I might not be aware of. I'm in west central Michigan. Please let me know what you have with pictures and cost.
Thanks,
Dwight

Re: WTB M29 Weasel tracks
Dick Mastin and I dropped off a broken Weasel track at Star Point about 2 weeks ago ! Star Point has put new rubber on 3 sets of M5 Stuart Tracks so far, We plan on installing our new tank tracks soon . Star point has a 5 Ft. Mold to do Half-track tracks. They bought an old rotating X-Ray machine and have mounted a drum that will allow them to wind the steel cable on and then clamp the cables . They should be able to make a smaller drum for the M29 tracks. They are looking into making new rubber coated weasel track bands and also into having the center track guide made. Look for a progress report soon ! Don Shaffer N.E. Ohio

Re: WTB M29 Weasel tracks
I saw Don post on this topic some time back, so I emailed the folks at Starpoint. I got the following response a few days ago.
I am currently working with another company on a joint venture to bring new weasel bands to market. You will need to re use your existing grouser pads or "paddles" and the inner drive lug.

Nice to have options.

Just giving this a bump as I'm also curious if there has been any progress on the weasel bands.
