I've had 2 totally outstanding snow cars.  My first car was great, a '28
Chev 4 cyl with 4.25/4.40 X 21" tires.  I could stop in the middle of a
steep hill and start up again and just breeze by all the others.  Was great
fun.

The second one was a 56 VW Microbus.  Lived in NH when I had that one and
with snow tires, I could deliver the snowplow driver to his job!  The heater
had 25% more heat output than the 1955 models, but there was still lacking a
device sensitive enough to measure the output!!
