Military Snow Trac

[Hydev]

Hi,

I have recently acquired a Snow Trac that I intend to restore to its former glory. I fell in love with them when I saw some in Nenana, Alaska whilst there on holiday in 2015. Its taken me a while to find one in the UK, but I finally did - chassis number #1914!

I am currently researching it and using this forum for a lot reading and prep for the fun ahead. I believe this is an ex-millitary one (British?) as it is painted green over red, has the lifting eyes on the front, towing fitments at back, fabric roof, has a 24v system and appears to have had a very well fitted extra fan fitted into the air cooler that runs off the belts. If anyone can provide more information on the military ones in general or even this particular one then I would be very very grateful.

I have attached some initial pictures for you all.

Thanks

Mike

Sorry, I forgot to mention that I would like to get this registered for road use in the UK. So if anyone has an advice they can give me to help me with the DVLA then I would be much appreciated. Even better if someone has already registered a Snow Trac with the DVLA then let me know

Welcome hy dev.

I agree your rig is likely up fitted for service somewhere. 1900's is a later one. And ive seen a few of those aux fans fit on st's some as early as the 900's

Enjoy the build!
