No, this is not a Hus-Ski.
I worked for Hus-Ski from 1961 untill 1968. We made lots of strange proto type machines but not this one.

Yes, I worked at 91 Hymus. For other reasons I have been going through about 4000 35mm slides but so far I haven't found any from 91 Hymus.

Were the machine built one by one or on a line?

The 1966 Ontario plate on the machine is the first I've seen. I have been told that Ontario started to make snowmobile plates in 1970. None were made in 1971, then plates were again manufactured in 1972, 73, 74, 75. They then went to registration stickers/numbers. I have 3 1970 plates and one of each of the other years. The plate might be a motorcycle plate?
