Seems we collectors dont always collect one thing !  So a few weeks back Central N.H.snowmobile club had their yearly get together. I hauled 6 different machines there, just for grins. They neglected to tell me it was going to be on channel 9 tv. here it is. https://www.wmur.com/article/nh-chronicle-antique-snow-machines-put-on-a-show/39354622

Me? I'm enjoying my vintage Dual 505-2 turntable and listening to vinyl records collected from over the years.

Nancy are up here in Maine celebrating our 50th wedding anniversary. JUST before we left, I saw an add in channel 9 and saw your smoosh on the boob tube. I have searched to try and find a show schedule for chronicle. I dearly wanted Nan to see it and you posted this link. She was like a little kid watching it. I rode on that, I rode on that. THANK you for posting it

Holy smokes that looks like fun!
Size and make of the engine in that Lombard? It looks like it could drag a house.

They use some of those machines on the ski hills too.
I could use one around here, about now with 28" snow topped with ice.
Liked the video!

John, The Dirt designs guys are Johnston,not Johnson. They were just little kids when ther Dad and i were mechanics at the local ski area. Gary ,I didnt have the propper engine for this machine ,so i took the engine out of a TD 18A international crawler and put in it. The last guy that ran lombards did that in the 1940's so i knew it could be done.No lack of power for sure. Don
