It's FIRST TEST!..........Will it Work?

🚜 FIRST DRIVE: Custom Aluminum Snowcat Built From Scratch (3 Years in the Making!) After 3 years and over 1,200 hours of fabrication, this one-of-a-kind custom aluminum snowcat finally drives under its own power for the very first time. In this video, Center Line Designs unveils the first test run of a fully custom-built tracked vehicle, designed and fabricated entirely from scratch. This snowcat features a 1.9L ALH Volkswagen turbo diesel engine paired with a hydrostatic drive system, delivering serious torque and precise control in a purpose-built over-snow machine. This project pushed the limits of design, machining, welding, and problem-solving—resulting in a truly unique snowcat you won’t find anywhere else. From raw aluminum to a functioning tracked vehicle, this first drive marks a massive milestone in the build. 👉 If you’re into custom fabrication, diesel engines, snowcats, tracked vehicles, or extreme builds, this is a video you don’t want to miss.
