its a mystery to me as to how that snow motor thing never cuaght on? what really sold me on it was how it was able to pull about 20 tons over loose snow. Im pretty sure there isnt even a truck on the market for civilains even today capable of doing that with the ease that snow motor showed. Even a 4x4 with front and rear lockers would dig itself into a ditch if you hooked all those logs to it and tried crossing loose snow.
I imagine the depression killed the company. It wasn't actually Ford that came up with it (why they showed it on a Chevrolet car)
Kinda makes a guy wonder how hard it would be to rig something like that up on a lawn mower with 55 gallon drums...
