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.

one....

There was a new-in-crate one offered on eBay about a year ago.

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.

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.
