$11,500

Lynnwood, Washington

Up for sale is a 1961 Thiokol Trackmaster 4T-10 / 601 snowcat. Selling the cabin, and no longer need the Snowtoaster. Local buyer was not able to come up with the funds to purchase, so it's back on ebay. The exterior paint could use some love again, but everything is mechanically sound. This is an off season sale in order to give any new owner time to have a little project over the summer in anticipation for snow in the mountains. The exhaust has a standard exhaust pipe, which exits through the roof of the cab, with a rain cap on top of the pipe. The double wall chimney pipe is there only to act as a barrier to the full amount of exhaust heat within the cab. I posted a picture looking down from the roof, straight down to the ground. http://postimg.org/image/bifwbvuhv/ The previous owner who did the restoration did an amazing job, and created a very unique machine. Here is some of the information I pulled from the original sale (4yrs ago), and some of the different receipts and project log book. This cat was born a 4T-10 (the 10 is referring to a 10-passenger unit), but it has been converted to a much more common steering system from a Bombardier cat, making it more akin to a Thiokol 601. The differential taken from the Bombardier was totally rebuilt after installation (new ring/pinion, bushings, synthetic fluid, etc.), also uses Bombardier sprockets. Rare hybrid machine with power divider removed and replaced with the more reliable, more maintainable, and 'parts available' Bombardier differential unit for steering. Solid core idle wheels. The steering was further upgraded with larger brake master cylinders behind the controls to improve steering even more. If you have a snowed-in cabin you want to get into in the winter time, this machine is for you! Or, if you want to do some back-country snowboarding/skiing with a bunch of friends, this cat would be great for that! There are custom built snowboard racks on the side so your boards can be safely out of the way. It has a bullet proof Ford 300, C4 automatic transmission (which was rebuilt before installing it) with a transfer case behind it so you have a wide range of speeds you can drive this at. This machine can go pretty fast for a snowcat! Here are some pictures from the previous owner, who had completed the restoration on the vehicle, nicknamed the SnowToaster. http://www.flickr.com/photos/31110202@N02/sets/72157626126396735/ and view a video clip: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MjI-fzxjPtc http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5aiBUpxHhBY http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aWe0akdkuqc The new snowcats just don't have the personality of these old machines. This is a piece of history! You will need a car trailer or equipment trailer to transport this machine, but won't need any special permits as it's not too wide. Outside of track to outside track width = 99.25 inches Length is roughly 152 inches. Overall weight is probably 6k pounds. Towed really easy behind my truck.
