what model and year...
kpm:
I'm not trying to make extra work for anyone,was thinking though,would it not be great at next years rally to have someone take down the model and years of the bombardiers(and of course owners).
The pictures are super,and putting the models and years to go with them might help alot of persons to indentify the machines.

Good idea there kpm. It was nice last year when Swamp Dawg put down some of the owners names along with their machines on some of his pictures.
There you Dawg; your volunteer work assignment has been issued. ha ha

hello Claude Here are some pics I took of a bomber a few years ago that was cut down and made into a track machine. The steering differential is out of a case tractor. I think the tracks and sprockets are from a bombardier trail groomer. They are not bomber or j5. It is powered by a 4 cyl Nissan pickup diesel engine. It is a bit crudely built as you can see from the pic but it works. It was built by Chris Wells from Campbellton. He cut the bomber in half and then he cut the front top part off and turned it around and welded it on top of the rear section. He made plywood sliding doors. He passed away a few years ago. It is owned now by Wallace Wellon in Ladle Cove. I took more pics of the engine area and tracks but they were blurred . I guess because it was raining at the time and water probably got on the lens of the camera. These are the best 2.

It was located on a farm in Prince George, BC. It is a Land Rover body mounted on a flextrac drive system. It was still in running order when it was parked.
