Basic spec check:
Armoured Snowmobile:
Length: 154"
Width: 101"
Height: 58"
Engine: Cadillac V8-cyl, 125 bhp.
Track width: 35", running on sixteen 4.50-16 Run Flat tyres
Muskeg Tractor - Model H. D. W.:
Length: 183"
Width: 87"
Height: 88"
Engine: Chrysler 6-cyl, 115 bhp. at 3,400 rpm.
Track width: 28"
Hmm, although it looks like Muskeg is indeed based on the Snomo design, it actually differs too much in lenght, width and track width to be the basis for a Snomo replica....or were there variations of the Muskeg, with one having basic dimensions very close to the Snomo?
