SUPER STAR SNOWMOBILE ???
SCROLL
ALL THE WAY DOWN
FOR
MORE HISTORY !!!!
THIS
PHOTO SHOWS A PICTURE OF A SUPER STAR SNOWMOBILE.
MY
RECORDS SHOW THAT 1971 WAS THE FIRST MODEL PRODUCED.
THIS
MAY BE A 1970 PROTOTYPE OR A 1971 SUPER STAR SNOWMOBILE.
THE SUPER STAR SNOWMOBILE IS A HARD BRAND TO
FIND
INFORMATION ON. IT MAY BE DUE TO THE OFFICIAL RECORD OF
THE
LISTING IN THE QUÉBEC GAZETTE,
THAT THE NAME IS LISTED
DIFFERENTLY
THAT IT IS ON THE BROCHURE.
B.C.R
AUTO-NEIGE INC VS
AUTONEIGE
B.C.R INC.
THIS
TEXT SAYS SOME OF THE FOLLOWING.....
A
NEW PLANT SPECIALIZING IN THE FABRICATION OF SNOWMOBILES UNDER THE NAME
OF
SUPER
STAR WILL OPEN THEIR DOORS SOON IN THE MUNICIPALITY
OF
STE
HÉNÉDINE, QUÉBEC. THIS INFORMATION WAS PROVIDED
BY THE THE OWNERS OF
LA
CIE B.C.R AUTO-NEIGE INC WHO ARE MM. DONALD BOUTIN, M CARRIER AND DENIS
ROY ALL
WHO
LIVE IN STE HÉNÉDINE, QUÉBEC. THE FIRST YEAR OF OPERATION
WILL PRODUCE
ABOUT
800
SUPER STAR SNOWMOBILES AND EMPLOY ABOUT 30
PEOPLE.
THIS
REQUIRES AN INVESTMENT OF $ 120,000.
RIGHT
NOW THIS SNOWMOBILE IS IN THE STAGE OF DEMONSTRATIONS AND SHOWING
THE
SLED TO A LOT OF PEOPLE. THIS WILL BE THE REVELATION OF THE YEAR.
THIS
SNOWMOBILE WILL HAVE THE OPTIONS OF ELECTRIC START AND REVERSE TO
ALLOW
THE DRIVER TO TURN AROUND IN A CLOSED / RESTRICTED SPACE.
AN
ENTERPRISE WAS CREATED IN STE HÉNÉDINE, QUÉBEC CALLED
BCR AUTO-NEIGE INC.
THESE
SUPER
STAR PROTOTYPE SNOWMOBILES
WERE ON DISPLAY LAST JUNE IN
MONTREAL,
QUÉBEC, CANADA. AT THAT TIME THEY STARTED TO ORGANIZE A
PLAN
TO SELL SUPER START SNOWMOBILES IN QUÉBEC AND IN THE USA.
WE
HAD SURPRISING RESULTS SAY THE 3 OWNERS,
MM
DONALD BOUTIN, LUCIEN CARRIER AND DENIS ROY.
LIKE
IN SAINTE MARIE, THERE IS MORE THAN ONE ASSEMBLY FACTORY.
THE
CAB / HOOD IS MADE IN SAINT HENRI DE LEVIS.
THE
METAL BASE, FRAME IS MADE IN PLESSISVILLE.
THE
SEAT IS MADE IN DRUMMONDVILLE.
THE
TRACK IS A GOOD YEAR PRODUCT.
THIS
PLANT HAS ALREADY PRODUCED 85 SUPER STAR SNOWMOBILES.
IT
HAS A KOHLER MOTOR WHICH IS MADE IN MALTON, ONTARIO WITH
MOTORS
RANGING FROM 20 HP TO 36 HP.
*
Malton is a neighborhood in the northeastern part of the city of Mississauga,
Ontario,
Canada, located to the northwest of Toronto.
A
FEW OF THE WORKERS WHO ARE WORKING AT THIS PLANT FOR THE LAST MONTH ARE
WAITING
FOR SHIPMENTS OF CERTAIN PARTS TO CONTINUE PRODUCTION.
BUT
THE PRODUCTION WILL START IMMEDIATELY AS THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO
PRODUCE
A MINIMUM OF 350 SUPER STAR SNOWMOBILES AND OF THAT NUMBER,
250
SUPER STAR SNOWMOBILES ARE GOING TO THE USA.

REQUESTS
FOR QUOTES.
THE
COMPANY AUTO-NEIGES B.C.R INC OF STE HÉNÉDINE, DORCH. QUÉBEC
HAS A
REQUEST
FOR QUOTES FOR THE BALANCE OF INVENTORY WHICH INCLUDES KOHLER MOTORS,
BOGIE
WHEELS, BUMPERS, SEATS, STEERING HANDLE BARS, ASSORTMENT OF
BOLTS
AND PIECES OF ALL KINDS. CURRENT VALUE OF $

AUTO-NEIGE
B.C.R WILL NOT APPROVE THE HIGHEST OR LOWEST BID OR QUOTES FOR NOW.
THE
QUOTES WILL BE ACCEPTED UNTIL OCTOBER 27, 1973
???
OK,
HERE IS WHERE I SEE ISSUES WITH THIS AD.
I
THINK THERE ARE A COUPLE OF ERRORS IN THE TYPING OF THIS AD.
IT
DOES NOT MAKE SENSE THAT ALL OF THAT INVENTORY WOULD BE
OF
A CURRENT VALUE OF ONLY $ 3100 DOLLARS.
IT
IS IMPOSSIBLE TO HAVE ALL OF THAT INVENTORY LISTED ABOVE WITH
A
VALUE OF ONLY $ 3100 SINCE
IT INCLUDES MOTORS, FRAMES AND SEATS ECT........
ALSO, THERE HAS TO BE AN ERROR BY SAYING THEY WILL COLLECT
QUOTES UNTIL
OCTOBER
27, 1973.
THAT IS 1 FULL YEAR
AWAY FROM THE DAY OF THIS AD.
IT MUST BE QUOTES WILL BE
ACCEPTED UNTIL OCTOBER 27, 1972.
THAT'S
JUST MY 2 CENTS. DAVID S.
