VERY Cool....I think that tractor is still alive & well. I swear I saw a color pic or vid of that not too long ago. I think there is a version with those pontoons that goes on water as well.

Here are a couple pics I knew I had somewhere & finally found. Snow Buggies.....

That is sooo bad. I much rather have that buggy than a snowmobile.

I hope you are referring to the rails I posted....LOL. I tried to buy the kit for these but I never could get ahold of the guy. I left him at least half a dozen messages but I think he stopped making them as fast as he started. I think it was $1799.00 for the pair of trax & a set of skis that bolted to the spindles in place of the front tires. I have had my buggy in a 1/2 foot of snow several times with paddles & I wanted this setup to run with my buds sleds.

This vid is of the most dangerous winter toy I have ever seen.

I found it while I was digging up video of the Boss Cat. I had a pic of Boss Cat 1 on my wall years ago.

I know this is a long shot but does anybody out there have a vid of a white rear engine rail with the trax conversion running around a field & up some small hills? I used to have it years ago on a computer that crashed & I have never been able to find it since.

Sitting, it snowed 6+ inches the other day so I thought I'd finally unload it at take it for a spin. Had been running around on my 4wheeler plowing snow. Welllll, It was frozen, lol. Couldnt even put the key in it :shock: So I pulled and pushed it in with the quad, tourched the key switch......and nothin, something was froze from the December powerwash and drying on the trailer, go figure. Waited an hour in the heated garage then fired right up. Still didn't get to try it in the snow :cry:

He had to stop because there was a patent on the design all ready. I'm building a set this year it will be fun to drive in the woods in the winter.

The internet has been scrubbed of any reference to that set up. That amazes me....
