Here is a link to a three part video of Michel Beland that I would like to hear translated.
It has some good shots of his B5 replica. Enjoy.

Wooden Bombardiers / 1946 b12

« on: May 27, 2013, 02:14:07 pm »

Here is a link to a 1946 B12 with lots of good pictures. Its in French but if you do a copy of the text and
paste it into Google Translate you can read the story about it. Some interesting pictures of the wheel kit
on the skis. Enjoy.

Here is a link for a war time news reel about the Bombardier B1 and probably the heavier General Motors version being tested. I don't think they ever made it in to action though.

Here is an old NFB clip of the Canadian Army testing the Bombardier B1's and the heavier B2's during WW2.
Some very interesting changes to the suspension on these machines.

Wooden Bombardiers / Re: A LITTLE DIFFERENT

« on: May 07, 2011, 01:34:30 pm »

Your right OT. After a closer look I see the difference. If you check out this video you will see them both shown.
The one you originally posted is at time stamp 1:21 and the second one is at time stamp 0:52. It looks like the first one
was originally red and has now been painted black.

Hello,

My name is Dale Hanson from Pilot Butte, Sask.
I have been following this forum for awhile now and have decided I want to find an old woodie to rebuild. I haven't
ridden in a bombardier since I was a kid but this forum has sparked a renewed interest in them. The neighbor had a steel bodied
bombardier for a few years and gave me a ride in it. I prefer the styling of the woodies over the steel machines so thats what
I want to rebuild. Thanks to all the members for your wealth of knowledge and the willingness to freely share it.

General Discussion / B7 or B12?

Hi members. Check out this link. Is this really a B7 or did someone shorten a B12?
