1977 Arctic Cat Lynx 2000-T/292cc Twin!

It was my first sled.  I will never sell it!  I have never had a single problem with the sled other than changing the track on it.  I have plans of restoring it someday..... buttrock.gif

Here's my '71 Rupp Magnum 440...it was mostly a '72 Nitro, with an old '71 Magnum hodd...I'm not done restoring it yet, but I'm pretyy happy with my first attempt at a vintage sled. My Dad had a '71 Magnum 400 when I was a kid, and it really went!!!

Sweet! My father sold Rupp's and owned a 73 Magnum and a 74 Nitro both of which won many events in Southern N.H. area. I starting to look for a vintage sled and I think the looking part is harder than I first thought. :div20:

I could ALWAYS use a Rupp fix. Someday I'm going to get me a 75 Nitro F/A (if I can find one I don't have to travel days to get).

Restored a 79 Polaris TX 340 free air last fall/winter. But cause of all the bugs and glitches I had to deal with, I only got to ride her bout 100 miles.

I still need to replace the motor windings cause she only runs for about a half hour when its really cold(-0) before the ignition starts cutting out.

Im gonna repaint the hood this fall cause the last paint attempt got seriously screwed up.

Heres a few pics of the resto and a little on the snow

My dad and my uncle are both VERY involved in the vintage world. I personally have a 1973 Moto-Ski Cadet 250 and a 1972 Bolens Sprint. Both of my sleds are mid-size; not minis, but not a full size sled either. Thought those little sleds were pretty neat. My dad and my uncle both have over 40 vintage/antique sleds each--obsession! It has become quite a family affair. Anybody out there go to the big show in Naubinway Michigan every Feb.?

I've been attending the Naubinway show, but didn't attend last year. Usually we stay in Curtis and ride our newer sleds to the show. I have older sleds to show, but with the amount of time I have to ride during the winter. I usually go up there to ride.
