Default Penguin

Hello all and Happy New Year. I'm looking for photos of the Penguin snowcat. Exterior and interior would be appreciated. I have seen 1 photo of the interior but it was stripped out. Anyone have photos of the Penguin as built?

Thank you.

Hello Duane,

Thank you Hanno. I'm kind of website search illiterate. I usually just read posts and chime in when I can contribute in some way.

I appreciate the link to the Penguin thread. Have a safe and prosperous new year.

Ok. I know I'm a PITA but this was for sale years ago. Is this a Wapiti? Anyone know what happened to it. Is something this size allowed on the trails in Canada? Thank you.

Bob Phillips has this one for sale. See the thead here:
http://www.mapleleafup.net/forums/sh...ghlight=wapiti

As to trail widths, I think the bigger problem would be getting it to the trail. At 11 feet wide, it would require overwidth permits to move on the roadways.

Thank you Mr. Love. I don't think he ever listed a price unless I missed it.

Looking for snowcat that seats 6-8 and able to tow 1 1/2 ton on ski's. Prefer one that is Military so I thought Canadian Military. The Wapiti is a magnificent snow vehicle that I'd love to own down here in Virginia for nearby States and MV shows.

Thanks again.
