Mini-Trac in Antarctica

Hi

Here is another weird and very wonderful video from You Tube about vehicles used in Antarctica. 

After a few shots of the tracked Swedish Snow-Trac and American Weasel, and the amphibious DUKW truck, we launch in to the main subject of the film. 

A tracked version of the Mini, called the Mini-Trac, built in Australia, and actually sent out to the ice for testing. 

What a great model that would make, although the suspension would require a fair amount of work. A wonderful piece of history.
