This thread has gone a bit quiet. Here's another to get the ball rolling again: what's this engine and what did it power?

Anybody out there?

Not exactly a quiz - I just wanted to know what on earth this is. WWII in Colour describes this as a Canadian-made snowmobile but it doesn't seem to be recorded in any lend-lease information I can find on the web or in written sources. Anybody got a clue?

Photos - Soviet Forces

Go to T16 Universal Carrier > Other Carriers > Canadian Armoured Snowmobile

You will find your snowmobile details.

Not a bad piece of kit for 1941, still looks good today.
They should still be making them as it would be fun to own one if you lived where there was lots of snow.
