Tucker 443

I've got a 68 Tucker 443 that we restored about 4 years ago. I'd like to either find someone to do a rubber track conversion or sell it and find a rubber track machine. I love the look of mine (it has the ex wide/long pontoons) but I want something that can go faster and has a more reliable track system.

I'm located in Erie, CO

Here is a video of it. We used it to do some skiing and a few times to service equipment buried in the snows of wyoming.

Not the best video of the machine and the paint has faded in the sun since this was made.

I'm looking for something that can got 25-30mph on a groomed trail. Am looking for something that a group of 6 can use to access back country ski terrain.

I want something thats faster than my 443 and that can haul 6 adults. The 443 is a tank and have been totally satisfied with its ability to go over and through stuff but at 6mph it just takes too long.

Is there a track conversion kit out there?

Why don't you pick up a Bombardier wide or narrow gauge . holds like 12 people . they do like 45 miles an hour The only problem with them is they don't turn very good on ice
