I would think it could easily be done. You'll have to rig some type of skid platform, braced up to the handlebars, as it will want to fall backwards, you can put a seat on it as well ..... make sire you got some nice XTrac ......

Not aware of any 10HP tracked snow blowers manufactured in 1968, would be interested in seeing this snow blower.
Can you post some photos of the machine?

Does it have a central shaft with chains to each track drive wheel? I restored a trac II some years ago. The shafts all turned in plastic sleeve bearings.. They were rusted solid so I replaced them with flange ball bearings. You may need to change the chain drive sprocket ratio to move faster. Good luck. GJ
