- The B12 was a 12 passenger snow bus manufactured by Bombardier (Now called BRP) The same company that makes the Ski-Doo brand of snowmobiles today.
Engines for the Bombardier B12 changed over the years. In the fifties the common engine was the six cylinder Chrysler flat head mated to a three speed transmission. During the sixties Bombardier began to use V8 engines and then moving into the seventies Bombardier adopted the industrial Chrysler 318 engine mated to an automatic “Loadflite” transmission. Production of these snowmobiles continued into the mid/late seventies.
Joseph-Armand Bombardier (Founder of Bombardier Inc.) had created his own sprocket wheel and track design in 1935 which he patented in 1936-7. This opened the door for him to get into manufacturing, beginning with his B7 (7 passenger) model and then in 1941 his B12.
So cool!
I suspect it has a Chrysler flathead 6 engine. No?
Id love to stuff my 12 valve Cummins into one of these
Sounds like a 305 chevy sort of ???
Chrysler flathead in-line six
We have what some call skidooza in Canada. It’s like a small bus but on chains, like a skidoo/snowmobile. It’s very cool, and goes everywhere 😊
Here’s a link to a vintage version, the only one I found ol czcams.com/video/IFhUS3a8Xis/video.htmlsi=KK3s5d-3dyZ3kKXO
