A variety of snowmachines from The Old Motor
What some used to do with their Harleys in the winter
Cat tracked and hydraulic rammed with solid front tires.
Wow, land train... I can't recall seeing one before. Very cool
either a homemade snow machine from car parts, or a conversion kit... in front of the woman on the right is a door I think, and behind her the body seems to have some sheet metal going up the side from the frame

More cool vehicles from Steampunkvehicles.Tumblr.com
Which got your attention first, the 6 wheels, the carpet roof, or the three bench seats? What a world's fair looking extravagence. Beautiful vehicle. I wish I had a year or maker. Reminds me of the 1905 Bordeux Cali limo https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiDEMKTOPCdSoXHumLVbestuqiRp4TSXE0z71C7MeZMJKruK8PMRrmn346fnO0Pf3VFWTuTibw_6T_agge6DQNSXvTSOLgnavdB8Ap7SISTP7TIg4r9P569Hi0s3jLbhwHGfdYtEZExg_U/s1600/1905+Bordeaux+Cali+Limousine..jpg
1934 Mercedes DR rail car
1912 Italian 305mm cannon... what in the world pulled, pushed or powered this beast?
Cool looking but simple railway crane
the Pickwick Coach, sleeps 26
Great 1920's or early 1930's 5th wheel tow and trailer
Notice in the above, the front wheel has a direction vane so the driver way at the back of the cab can tell where it will steer

Must have been built to accomplish a lot, it's got ski's on the front, tracks on the back, and a boat on top
Dodge Power Wagon is my best guess. Found on http://steampunkvehicles.tumblr.com

Model A's may be the most versatile vehicle ever made, nothing else was a delivery truck, railcar, firetruck, racecar... infinite variety
I'm thrown... Never seen a cross between a conestoga and a Ford

I'm impressed, this "Mini Ripsaw" looks like it can go over anything

Real unusual things from trailer washers, motorized wheels, to tank track Rolls Royces
Never seen one before, and something about the age of a black and white photo tells me that these are obsolete
I have no idea at all what this is
Ok, but why take it out if you have to add skis?
Really early car phone
Odd stuff on this tow truck
1890's and I was told it's a velocipede
Lenin's 1922 Rolls Royce Silver Ghost snow machine. Most expensive snow machine conversion? or strangest use for a Rolls Royce?
I've never seen a photo of a tractor involved in a car crash
no idea what the motorbike in front is
Never seen a train engine like this... must be for moving train cars around in a train yard
For packing dirt roads?
Early Daytona Beach racers with superchardged Auburns, before NASCAR took over racing on Daytona Beach
Click for full size to read the story
Two of the rare Jeeps the (1959) FC 59, but the below is even more rare
Model T tank
Love the motor wheels... I'd so love to ride one! This one was investigated by Hemmings Blog and you can read more about it: http://blog.hemmings.com/index.php/2010/11/22/m-goventosas-one-wheel-to-obscurity/ it went 93mph... I doubt that anyone did that more than once given the conditions of roads in Italy in 1931 to 1933, that's when the above photo was taken, 1931
Puegeot in 1934, great designed car, looks like the top is coming down
Wipers on the inside and outside... and that might be Ron Howard... like Tere commented, it sure looks like him during the Andy Griffith show
