ATTEX did build
an 8x8 It was sold to the military as a tank trainer. Many have returned
to the general population. They were built around 1974, based on the
400 CHIEF powered by a JLO 400, sold complete with roll bar and 5 bolt
hubs. They were three seater machine with one person up front as the
driver. SIDE VIEW, FRONT

machines
over a 20 year period. Many different model and styles were sold. Please

are hard to see. I will be adding more and more PHOTOS to this section.

racer, used late model POLY body without a trans, just forward only
most used large horsepower snowmobile engines, were used for motocross
style racing, Really worthless for any use except for track racing.
AATV racing exploaded on the scene for a couple of years, mostly in
the states of PA and OH, then it died a FAST death, never to reappear
again. For more information see ROUTE6x6
BLAST FROM THE PAST Section. I have
available a VIDEO TAPE which shows approx. 20 min of this style of AATV
racing see ROUTE6x6 SHOPPE Section Additional inside PHOTOS

STORY
Ever wonder what the old ATTEX factory looks like today, Now thanks
to Bob Chesarek, we can. I Had to drive into PGH. today so I took the
digital camera and took a few shots of the Glenshaw plant. Things sure
have changed over the last 30 years. I dont remember the big green
addition to the building. Must have been added later. The yellow lettering
up on the front says TRIANGLE MACHINE CO. That is Rt. 8 in front or
Wm. Flynn Highway as it used to be called. The first 3 pictures are
looking from the North bound lanes and the last from the South bound.
Next time I get into the Lawrenceville section of the city Ill
try to get some shots of the UNITED building where the plant moved after
they left Glenshaw. Thanks to you : Bob Chesarek PHOTOS

A little History of the Snoopy from George Carter
"Here are photos and brochures of Coot's Funmobile line, Searcher,Snoopy,
and Red Barron. I designed and built the prototypes in 1965 and sold
them to Coot Industries in 1967. Coot manufactured about 2000 units
before the company's demise in the late 60's. This was the first 2wd
"mini" buggy design which eventually evolved into other
four wheel ATVs. As I told you I'd like to find one for my collection."

John Gower was
the inventor of the ATV. He passed away a few years back: thanks
Philip Osborn
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Wayne Edel Grandson
of John Gower wants to share this story and PHOTO with us all, He is
looking for more infomation
to complete his families history:
The Story:
My name is Wayne Edel and I am one of the grandsons of the late John
Gower, inventor of the first production ATV, The Jiger. But this is
a history I have only been made aware of lately. Growing up on a farm
in Southern Manitoba we never saw alot of 6 wheeled ATV's, but we had
may off road vehicles of the 2 and 3 wheeled variety. The first one
my Dad bought was the TRI-CAT.
Built in Manitoba it ran on an 8hp Briggs & Stratton and had
a belt & chain drive. It was very cool for a young kid like me.
At this time my grandfather, John Gower was divorced from my grandmother
and we heard he had made some kind of 6-wheeled ATV out in Toronto,
but out of respect, we never asked much about it. It was only since
my grandmother pasted on did we discuss more of the family history.
Then I saw a picture of the Jiger for the first time. I have always
been around motorized recreational vehicles, but this thing was different.
It was like family. In a family history book my aunt put together, there
were many great
photos of the Jiger. I have spent much of my time since searching out
info on the Jiger. Through this I have met some very nice Jiger owners
who have helped me with my research with pictures and info. Thanks to
all of you.
My short-term goal is to put up a web site with factual and technical
information about my Grandfather, the Jiger, and the Jiger Corporation
history. My long-term goal is to fully restore a Jiger exactly as it
would have been on the
showroom floor and to have a Jiger on display in the Ottawa Transportation
Museum. This is not only a fantastic piece of Canadian history, but
it's a fundamental piece of ATV history. Any one with pictures (old
or new) or info on JIGERS and that would like to help, you can
EMAIL me. I also want to support anyone who wants to restore Jigers
if I can, but if you have one rotting in you back yard, let me know.
Thanks to Richard Clark for all your info and help.

Model year 2001
MAX II 800-T Just introduced:
NEW 20 HORSEPOWER KOHLER-POWERED MAX II-800T THE MOST POWERFUL TWO-PASSENGER
SIX-WHEELER ON THE MARKET ....ALSO THE QUIETEST FEATURES INCLUDE...
Kohler Command 20 horsepower, 624cc engine with hydraulic valve lifters
for low maintainence and an accelerator pump on the carburetor for quick
throttle responce. This is the same engine that powers our MAX IV-800T
and Buffalo Truck. A stout 32 ft. lbs. of torque is generated at 2500
rpm. Re-designed engine bay makes the vehicle extremely quiet. New muffler
arrangement offers a full 12 decibel noise reduction. The muffler is
inside the body of the vehicle instead of being tucked under the rear
fender area, so the vehicle is considerably quieter and the muffer will
not get caked up with debris. Airflow is routed through internal ductwork;
cool air enters one side of the vehicle and hot air exits on the other
side, resulting in better cooling to the engine, the exhaust system,
as well as the entire engine compartment. Screens are provided on all
air vents to minimize debris entering the vehicle. Re-designed cargo
area. The cargo area now has a flat floor accross the width of the vehicle,
rather than having a raised engine cover on one side with a lowered
floor on the other. The engine cover now consists of a flush-mounted
hatch that is secured with 1/4 turn screws. The standard cargo rail
encompasses the entire cargo area.

PHOTO Hey
Richard! Here are a few pictures of my restored SKIPPER. I found it in
an open garage and it had been there for approx. 7 to 8 years. I brought
it home and found the chains and bearing cap were in poor shape. There
was no seat or exhaust. I figure the motor was original, the rings were
seized to the piston, I pumped automatic transmision oil into the cylinder
and about a week later the rings popped, I rebuilt carb and after about
30 years the motor is running fine. I added an electic starter, built
a roll cage, repaired cracks and painted, put on a new seat. The pictures
show you what she looks like now.
