Has anyone seen this? This is pretty cool! Imagine seeing this thing coming at you in 1929!

That's really slick! It looks like it worked reasonably well too. I think it's cool how they rigged up the steering mechanism. While it steers in a similar manner to a tracked vehicle, it still used a regular steering wheel.

I wonder if it was ever patented? Would be cool to make one out of a snowmobile.

I was impressed by that too.

He probably kicked that guy in the nuts the next time he had the chance.
