DAVID'S VINTAGE
SNOWMOBILE PAGE.
RESTORING
THE SPORT ONE PIECE AT A TIME.
PAGE 18,766
1966
OR 1967 CLIPPER / SNO CLIPPER
SOLD
IN SEVERAL STORES IN THE USA.
NOTE:
I
WAS TOLD MANY TIMES THAT THE CLIPPER OR SNO CLIPPER WAS
SOLD
IN SEARS STORES IN THE USA BUT I CANNOT FIND
ANY ADS,
OR
SEARS CATALOGUES SHOWING A SEARS CLIPPER SNOWMOBILE.
FOR
THE 1966 MODEL YEAR, SEARS WAS ALREADY SELLING SCORPION
SNOWMOBILES
UNDER THE NAME OF SEARS SNOWCRUISER SO IT
DOES
NOT MAKE SENSE THAT SEARS WOULD SELL 2 BRANDS BUT
I
AM NOT 100 % SURE OF THIS INFORMATION.

LEFT
HERE ON THIS PAGE AS A REFERENCE,
CLIPPER
/ SNO CLIPPER / SKI DADDLER - SNO SQUIRE
IT
IS VERY HARD TO FIGURE OUT THE TRUE HISTORY OF CERTAIN BRANDS
OF
SNOWMOBILES AS THERE IS LITTLE DOCUMENTATION OUT THERE.
OVER
THE NEXT MANY PAGES, I WILL BE POSTING SOME INFORMATION ON
THE
BRANDS LISTED ABOVE. IT'S ENOUGH TO MAKE YOUR HEAD SPIN TO
TRY
TO FIGURE OUT WHY THEY ARE CALLED DIFFERENT NAMES IN ADS
AND
WHO MADE THESE SLEDS TO SELL IN CERTAIN STORES.
AS
FAR AS I KNOW, THE SQUARE SHAPE
CLIPPER / SNO CLIPPER WERE
SOLD
AT ONE TIME OR ANOTHER AT .........
AGWAY
STORES AND OTHER LOCATIONS / STORES.
LOOK
AT THESE PICTURES AND COMPARE.
SKI
DADDLER MADE THE CLIPPER AND SNO CLIPPER
THAT
WERE SQUARE SHAPE.
BELOW,
NOW WE HAVE A SKI DADDLER / CLIPPER / SNO CLIPPER SLED THAT
IS
CALLED SNO SQUIRE
THAT IS BEING SOLD AT AGWAY IN JAN 1969.
THIS
IS WHAT THE 1968 SNO SQUIRE LOOKED LIKE.
NOW,
BELOW, ADD INTO THIS SEGMENT THIS CLIPPER WHICH IS CERTAINLY
A
POLARIS SNOWMOBILE THAT WAS MADE FOR AGWAY TO SELL IN THEIR
STORES
AND IT MAKES YOU STOP AND WONDER.
IF
YOU HAVE ANY INFORMATION THAT YOU CAN SUPPLY ON THE HISTORY OF
THE
CLIPPER, SNO CLIPPER, PLEASE EMAIL
ME. THANKS. DAVID S.
