It would be awesome to have one of these, especially with the Model A chasis!

Since they had a version for passenger cars, I guess that was a possibility.
Pretty interesting. What made it not sell?

The fact that it likely wouldn't be able to move forward at all on hard surfaces? (Unlike a snowmobile or crawler track that sort of can).

Cool idea, but very impractical unless confined to very limited conditions.

The video stated that it could be driven on hard surfaces in a pinch.

Its a neat idea, I've seen that video before somewhere. I think the funniest part is "Horses should not be used in deep snow"...proceed showing horses struggling in deep snow That would never fly nowadays
