Can't see it mentioned above, there was a modern version (designed and driven by Adrian ?, Hadrian? from the UK) that was the first amphibious vehicle to drive across the Bering Straight. Amazing what you can learn from Scrapyard Challenge.....

Wow that's a pretty amazing video of the Fordson snow motor.... esp towing the two big wagons of logs....seems to be highly manouverable as well...
As George says, wonder why it didn't take off? would have been good in the north and seems a better option than say the Bombardiers that came after in terms of tractive power and certainly manoueverability... although the Bombariders offered protection from the cold
