Hi Pantomfixer, take a look at this Wikipedia article about a British inventor Geoffrey Pyke who was instrumental in helping to design the Weasel, it also explains other ideas he had for helping the war effort in WWII? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geoffrey_Pyke Cheers Lewis.

hbtcoveralls Posted June 30, 2016 Share #4 Posted June 30, 2016 Tom Murray in New Jersey one time had a huge inventory of Weasels and parts for them, he might still have too. I remember that he was selling the engines to Studebaker car enthusiasts. Nice to see he still has some and the "Water Weasel" M-29C is a pretty rare bird Tom Bowers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry mis-typed, they've been in Delaware as long as I've known of them. They also did M-151 parts and others. Great and very well know in the MV community Tom Bowers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
