"Necessity is the mother of invention": How do Model T Snowmobiles fit in?

Summary

Nutrition label

72% Informative

Model T Snowmobiles came in three different "sizes," called gauges.

Virgil White built his first converted Model T "snowmobile" in 1913 .

White removed the vehicle's front wheels and replaced them with metal and wood skis.

White advertised his Snowmobile could travel through 30 inches of unbroken snow at 18 mph .

A few companies still offer modern kits for both the Model T and A today , and the Model T Ford Snowmobile Club (a Chapter of the Model T Ford Club of America founded in 2000 ) holds regular winter get-togethers to show off their rides, so there's still quite a bit of enthusiasm for these snow automobiles.
