Hey there,

Found this one on Craig's List Sacramento. It's a bit of an odd looking Bombardier bus, and even stranger is that it's in California. I don't think I've ever seen one of these anywhere near the west coast before. Looks good for a restroration.

It's in Quincy, about 2 hours north of Truckee, CA.

Hmm. The front looks like a Delorean with those little square lights. Not sure about the back side. The body looks pretty straight from these photos. Front bumper is a bit odd I suppose.

This is one example of a snowcat that probably has no market in California. Except where it is parked right now, most of our snowy areas are quite mountainous. I bet it would be worth 2-3x as much in the northern states. I'm almost tempted to go look at it. . .no wait a minute. . . I have absolutely no time for this machine in my life. We've got about 40 days of snow left on the ground out here and I've still got about 50 trees to process.

This is/was one of those great deals we are all looking to find. $750.00 for it even though it needs work is bargain basement for the potential, after some major work it would be worth up to 15K.......Just my .02 thoughts.

I'll keep my eyes peeled then... there were a couple that went in ME/NH area for about $2-3K each last year that were in very good shape, definitely in good working order and cosmetically sound inside/outside. I contemplated the purchase but didn't want to stray from momma (Trackmaster). Suppose I could have flipped them but I'm not into that. One in MI went for not too much. I haven't seen many people post about them so didn't bother... next time I will PM you.
