It should say DOMÄNVERKET, which was and still is under a different name, the state forestry service. They where a big user of weasels in Sweden and commissioned a lot of the production of Swedish made replacement parts.

I see that you weasel also has the second front seat installation.

DOMÄNVERKET it was!
Thanks for that.
Unfortunately there are not a lot of pictures of Weasels in service, at least not when I do my search on google.

It may good be possible that a second seat was installed, but only the space remains as all the rest of the seat etc is removed already.
I'm trying to see my Weasel soon, so I can take some pictures if wished.

There was an ad on a Dutch advertisement site with reproduction track bands.
According G503 forum they were selling for >$6000 for a set.
I don't have the contact details, but maybe somebody has, as it already has been done before...

(Ad is removed, so I think they are out of stock)

Hi Dan,
I think the tracks you are referring to are from M29C3284 (and not from mine).

I assume it is coming from Sweden.

It is not Swedisch made, as I found the USA number, but I can imagine parts were changed during it's life.

Oon the side there is painted the name of a Swedish foresty service: xxxxxverket (I can't remember the first part of the name).
There is also a sticker present with: Reindeer International Snowmobile Cup Arjeplog Sweden

Hello,

Herewith some pictures of the boogy wheels.
I'm not near the weasel, so cannot take any better pictures at the moment.

From my mind, the wheels with the red dots are dates '44 and '45 but need to check this.

From what I see there are are least 4 different types mounted:

- Spokes with a dimple ( [ - shapend)
- Straight spokes ( | - shaped)
- Solid wheels
- Wheel with holes

I found some pictures of the fuel tank also.
It was already cleaned on the outside an put in zinc primer and normal primer.
Plan is to have it cleaned and bonded on the inside also.
It took me about 2 hours and a lot of heat to get the valve separated, but it is operation again.

Parts required for everything you see and miss on the pictures, expect from the fuel pump you see in my first post.

Regards
Frank

Hello All,

I'm new to this forum, and like to introduce my Weasel.

Off course all my other projects are not finished, and storage is a real pain....I still decided I "needed" a Weasel.
So progress will be very slow and since I bought it, almost nothing happened.

Although not much work, I found the hull number so here it goes:
M-29-C - 6672

U.S.A.
40195512

Unfortunately the data plate is missing as this was removed before I bought the M29C.

We did some trails to start the engine, but till date no luck with that.
The engine spins, but no compression on at least 2 cylinders.

Furthermore I found an original carburettor and the electrical fuel pump is overhauled.
Still need a lot of parts to finalise the fuel pump as you can see in the picture.
So herewith the pictures.
