For 31 inventive years Eliason and Eliason/Four Wheel Drive (FWD) snowmobiles were the lone lifeline of snowmobiling. Modern snowmobiles are directly traceable to the original hand built 1924 Carl Eliason machine.
All of the snowmobiles, though they varied in size and shape, used four-cycle engines, slide track guides, chain link cleated tracks, floating power units and belly pans with running boards that formed the toboggan contour.

Overall this snow machine is in cosmetically great shape, It was part of a collection in long term storage, and operation is unknown.
