I recently recieved mail from Dell Dalgliesh out of Manitoba reporting Penguin #57....
Here is a excerpt from our corespondence..
Can we get some info for Dell and welcome to the MLU Homefires...

The only history I know about it is the ski resort at LaRivera Mb bought it from the government to use on the ski slope, they later cut 2/3 of the cab off and mounted a snow making machine on the back and drove it off the Cadillac engine.
The exhaust pipes rusted off and they let water get into the engine and then we got it. We rebuilt the engine and try to take better care of it.
The machine is in Sarles, ND right now.
I guess my biggest question is; how many of the markIII's were built and how do I tell what the chassis serial# is? The serial# on the Canadian Arsenals data plate is 57.
If you stay in touch I will share any info I have.
It would also be good to know where all the parts that Levy Auto Parts had for these machines went to.
