WTS ST4 Snow-Trac "Back from the Dead"

[Puckle]

For sale my 1967 (or so) Snow-Trac as featured in the post "ST4 back from the dead" https://www.forumsforums.com/threads/st4-back-from-the-dead.86198/

This has had a full nuts and bolts restoration and is as close as you can get to "new" Snow-Trac without having to buy one of those plastic replicas for $90k

Since finishing the restoration thread I have added cushions to the interior and swapped the engine for a fully rebuilt 1641cc twin port with crank re-grind, new mains, big ends, pistons and barrels, inlet and exhaust valves, camshaft bearings, clutch, fuel pump, distributor, carburetor, and starter motor.
The cooling system was upgraded with type 4 oil cooler with enlarged dog-house and additional extract fan on sump mounted temperature switch.

All rusted steel panel work and chassis members were replaced with new, including complete front cab and roof assembly, most of the aluminium panels are original.

New parts in the rest of the vehicle include:
Variator tower bearings and thrust bearings, Variator belt, drive chains, 16t drive sprocket, bronze track sprockets, speedo drive and cable, hand break cables with emergency steer function and inboard hand brake lever to unclutter cockpit, brake master cylinder, pipes, discs and servo, Track belts, grousers and wheel guides ( see https://www.forumsforums.com/threads/st4-tracks-sprockets.89309/ )all tyres - BKT for large wheels and fork lift solid tyres for small ones, small wheel rims and wheel bearings, all suspension bushes in "Delrin" UHMW plastic, drivers seat, small instruments, fuel tank and battery.

This runs and drives beautifully and although I have not had it in deep snow I have driven up to 32 miles on road/off road trips with no problems.
There is a minor bit of paint damage on the bumper and by the snow-track decal as can be seen in the pictures below and also the repo windscreen wipers are beginning to rust but no other defects.

Asking price is $23,000.

Vehicle is in UK (midlands) but I have had a quote for shipment on RoRo to east coast USA at $1,200 and I am happy to arrange delivery on board at this end if buyer sorts US side and pays freight cost.

Wow!

From my perspective you've done a spectacular job on this machine, and the price is a bargain of epic proportions!

Thanks for your endorsement BFT, so difficult to value stuff like this but it owes me about that in parts.

Puckle,

You've taken the proverbial sows ear and made it into a silk purse. That took parts, sure, but it took determination, great skill, and execution... and a whole of a lot of hours. Skilled labor should be worth something, and that’s why I said it was a bargain of epic proportions.

I wish you good luck with the sale, and hope you’ll continue to post on the forum.

All things considered, you may have to keep the military version but with appropriate upgrades to the armament...

 

[Puckle]

Yes, construction of the WOMBAT gun going well - I will post updates on that, and I have a 3rd snow-trac to restore as well.

after watching the build, even considering the shipping cost and probably a (un)fair amount of state sales tax and federal import taxes, it still looks to be a good buy. Snow Trac x 2 owner, Steve in McCall

Hello Puckle!

Is the ST4 still for sale? Looking for cabin access and really appreciate the love and care you took in this restoration- absolutely beautiful!

 

[Puckle]

Hi Camden Cabin, sorry, no, i'm just in the final stages of shipping it out to the states in December.
Hope you find one, Cheers, Ian

 

[CamdenCabin]

Thanks for the quick reply, Ian! Sad that I didn’t see this thread earlier- let me know if anything changes- or if you have another project in the works (perhaps I could “commission” one from you!)

All best,
Camden

Hello all. I just finished my pole barn and looking for a Snow Trac ST4 rebuild project to put in it. Prefer one in North America but would consider off continent.
Let me know if you know of any please.

Thanks

Well, it's not a rebuild project, but here is a really nice one. https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1680591665934226

Dude,........ I used to live in Clarkston, when I was young. First, we lived in an 8-room farmhouse on Whipple Lake Road. Huge house, cost $500.00 a month to heat the place, so we weren't there long. We sold that house and moved a block from downtown Clarkston.

Now I live in the sticks, up nort.

I'll bet that our Buddy redsqwrl probably has one or two Snow Tracs that he will part with..... and he's in Wisconsin.

..... Look him up.

(I still have an Aunt that lives in Clarkston... she can see Pine Knob from her house).

 

[redsqwrl]

Guilty.
I have an offer on one of the nuts hiding here. im dragging my feet on cutting it loose. How much of a project are you seeking?
