Anyone ever heard of a Chrysler Snorunner?

Chrysler Marine made these in the late 1970's. Take a look...

Yep, I've heard of them. Someone on the old Mopar Mailing List used to have a couple. The company I work for still has a few "PowerBee" 2-stroke utility pumps lying around. "PowerBee" was Chrysler Marine's name for its non-marine 2-stroke engines.

And every once in a while I still run across a Chrysler-built Airtemp commercial airconditioning chiller, too :-)
 
Decades ago my mother was on a jury in a case where a guy was sueing Chrysler claiming that his boat engine was defective. He was very smug during the case and was sure the hometown jury would vote against the big bad corporation but Chrysler won arguing that he had not maintained his engine properly.
 
That looks more fun than a barrel of monkeys. I wonder where I can get one....
 
I had snowrunner in 1980 and it was a real blast. It kept my hopes up for spring to come so I could get back in the saddle on my bike. They only went about 35 mph and was kind cool riding to town because the cops did not know what to call it or even could ticket me because it was not in the vehicle code.

i have seen them and i do believe that yamaha made something like it a few years ago that was alot faster
 
That would fit in the trunk of my car! Maybe two of them. It's hilly here, and I'm a little concerned about that. Other than that I love it. I looked at the ebay store of the guy with all the parts for sale. It looks like parts are pretty much available. One guy bought all the supply of spares.
