Studebaker Snowmobile

[TWChamp]

I found this picture and description on the internet today. Now, this is the only way to go snowmobiling, and you can take all your friends along.



Frank B. Willis, the manager of the Studebaker Indianapolis Branch, is seen above behind the wheel of his 1910 Flanders 20 Skeeter that was his own invention. It was made up of a complete car with another Flanders frame, and front axle joined to it back-to-back in the middle. The back half was also equipped with a steering gear for the rear sled.

Pretty cool. (pun intended)

That's an awesome photo! I grew up in western Montana, where sleigh rides and winter activities were a big deal. That Skeeter looks like a good time.

Looks like an early example of a...CHICK MAGNET!
