    Attached is a link to a youtube video of the first Zamboni.
    I have placed this thread here because it is a video of the history of the Zamboni.
    Moderators, place where you think it is appropriate.

    Jeeps have been modified since the very beginning.

    I was fortunate enough to drive a Willys-based zamboni for work in '04/'05 at the Sugarloaf Touring center in Maine. It had a very low serial number and a handwritten note on the cover from Frank Zamboni. They have since replaced it with a newer zamboni. Theirs had an auger instead of the chain with cups to move ice chips to the hopper.

    I found this video of it. It looks like it was sold to a smaller mountain in the next town.

    you should be proud, it will soon be something that does not happen.
