Swamp Dawg:
Bob, I don't think I've seen pictures of your bombardier.  Do you have any we can post?

the old trucker:
i definetely agree 110 %. it's too bad that i didn't know about you fellows 10 to 15 years ago. i might of bought one and took it back home to newfoundland with me. i traveled back and forth from nova scotia to alberta 15 to 20 times a year. maybe right by your front door. i have seen the odd old bombardier running around in the fields close to the highways. i read about cameron mclean in the cdn home workshop 2 yrs. ago. i love to be there with him helping with the woodwork. since then i have found 1 machine 12 miles from my home. also i found 5 more about 25 miles from home. unfortunately none are for sale. with any luck in the spring i may be able to get one. right now it's buried under the snow. don't know if it's any good, what year, or model it is.
  anyway i'm still hoping and looking for now.

Snowbusman:
I must apoligize for starting this message and dropping it for the past year. Things were pretty tough at home and I spent all my time looking after personal affairs. With that in the past I am back at the machine
and currently working with my engine rebuilder building up the bottom end. I am doing something a little radicle with installing an automatic transmission up against the IND 313. Its been a real learning curve but very interesting. The polys are truely a great engine, very strong and just about industructilble. I have been taking pictures of the restoration and keeping a log. Lots of hours so far and still have the interior and exterior to  get at.

the old trucker:

  Sounds very interesting Snowbusman !!  I can hardly wait to see some of your handy work !!
