VW snow buggy passing through - PICS
 

Out and about this past weekend, I had this truck come next to me and I glanced over, and noticed this bad ass VW snow buggy on board. The yellow one in the front didn't look nearly as cool IMO.

Figured I would snap some pictures, seeing I actually had the camera in the car for once.

I assume its on its way somewhere, not in CT. Maybe Alaska? lol

Really. Where the fuck do you use this shit anyway besides Alaska?

Anywhere you want to ski and there's no lift.

SICK. I was playing around in one of these during the "BIG" snow storm this year on the golf course I work at in Old Saybrook:

(not me...just a google pic)

Tracked vehicles in the snow are a blast.

I pretty much need one of those to complete my life now, thanks Vash.

This may be a cheaper solution for those times when you just can't penny up for a snow buggy:

my grandfather has an old WWII M29 closed-cabin "weasel"... Its soo bad ass and its armored too! He put a 357 into it for more umph tho. I need to find the pics...

Omfg do want. Thanks for sharing, vash. So i wonder what its officially called.. or is it a kit?

I want this:

That is pretty damn awesome...

I want this!

Looks like it was made back in the 60's by a guy in Sweden. The VW emblem is for the motor it uses, rather than it actually being a VW.

Here's the link I found - Snow-Trac.com

Here's a video on them, but be warned, it has terrible music and I can't understand a fucking thing the guys are saying. But all the other videos were just 20-30 second clips of them driving by.



EDIT: I could totally handle living Ken Blocks life. Snowboard park/mountain in your backyard.....what!?

This thread is complete win.

That thing looks tuff. Whenever I see a snowtrac I think of The Shining.

They're called Snowcat's, and used a bunch here in Canada
