71 tnt

Suitcase gas tank is such a cool idea!

1971

Very good video!!!

I hope the channel comes back this winter! This is seriously some of the best vintage sled content out there! So many people just show them, but they don’t tell the good details.

The gauge package Dash on that sled is identical to a 2001 MXZ 800x that I rip for many years in red beautiful gauge package, mirror image

I was grass dragging in '75. I was riding a Rupp lightweight homebuilt racer w/ a 650 Blizzard engine, it was pretty quick. I won every race that day until I raced against a 650 Chaparral factory racer. Anyways, I got a great launch and was ahead about halfway on the run. Then that Chaparral came by me so fast, with its skiis floating about 6" off the ground, it almost sucked the paint off my sled. I'll never forget that race, damn those Chaps were fast!

Looks alot like a rebadged ski-doo.

I have a 1993 750 storm and that my friend is a beautiful snowmobile

This machine and all the rest you see in his video is up for auction. Online. At Auction Masters I will copy and post the link.

Please open the hood

Should give us the production numbers, it's all original but I think it was special order from the cat factory. Cat also said at the time they would make available any sled designed for racing to the general public as long as it could be reproduced on the assembly line

The thing is that every single older sled needs a new windshields and seat covering...still original in my book

I doubt that there is another person in the world that knows the complete history of every make and model like this man, Valdi..

Why don’t you show the motor

Why didn’t you show the motor ?

Where is this museum?

Sweet sled, Sure miss the good ol' days.

Is it a hirth honker ?

That engine must sound interesting

Mint!! MAGA 2024!!!

yes. 71, not sure why he kept saying 72, or why he stuttered so much.

The 634 cc Hirth, the last sled you talked about actually is a 1970. I was a Chaparral dealer at the time. 1970 was a huge improvement over the 1969. 1970 included polyurethane track, aluminum tunnel, enclosed hood, thick soft seat, raised seat with storage under seat. In 1971 Chaparral made them lower and sleeker, nice sleds. 1969 models had issues. Rubber track, steel body, recoils all broke on third pull on all kohlers. Chaparral was purchased by Armco steel, then when the recession hit and gas shortages on the west coast caused a loss, at that point Armco discontinued production. The last couple years Chaparral tried too many new things and had too many warranty issues. About 1973 or 1974 was last year of production I believe.

What brand engine did it have ?

wonder how much it sold for

I think it's pretty cool that all these Big Block snowmobiles from the early days are still cackling to life.

Answer your phone.

Tell us more about this most unusual engine.

My grandfather had two of those! 1 had 400mi the other 600mi… sold both for $300… unbelievable right? These machines were absolutely cherry.

That is not a TX-L ☹️

Dang brother. You have some of my favorite sleds there. I owned a 634 Puma. Just like the one you have in the background. I drag raced that one and a 440Z. We won everything

The most popular Lynx in my area was the Lynx with the 292 Kawasaki engine, they were light and pretty fast.

I had a 634 Puma. Raced it for a while. Won a bunch of race’s. Also had a 440Z. Won everything on that sled.

Ohhh my goodness. That’s beautiful. We used to call them Turf Tigers. They won a bunch of drag raced.

I remember when they came out, everyone was talking about them, they were almost mythical. A couple guys bought some in my area, later that winter we had a radar run, and both ran their v4s. I was expecting them to take the show, many 650 polaris indys beat them , wild cat 700s my old 650 wild cat did even did better, the v4s were running with the mach1 617s. They weren't huge performers out of the box.

Ooof the history and hard work sad, have been enjoying your videos, sad to see all your irreplacable hard work disrespected by mother nature in this way. Hope to see the vintage sled community rally and help you get things going again. You had an absolutely beautiful collection😢

It was all Sno Twisters where I lived .

Those Fuji's were grenades.,atleast in 71.

Currently own a '95 storm. Bought it with all original parts. Only change i made was plastic skis. She may need a overhaul this fall to keep her in good shape. But wouldn't trade it for a newer model!

Thank you sir 👍

Great looking machine. Just wondering what is the Primary clutch?

I have the 92 and it's number 652 in the production run

Why not start it so we can hear it run

Those golden vintage sleds (when properly restored) had a rumble that was exciting. Hearing this sled brings back memories for me of when my Dad would start-up our '71 Skidoo Olympique on a cold, wintery Canadian night. My Mom would say "Hey, get your snowmobile-suit on...Dad's going-out for a ride..." Such beautiful memories, thank you Vladi for the show.

had an old snow Prince snowmobile single cylinder

Nice sled. 72' by the way. Had several old Ski-doo's, best days as a kid.

Great you’re posting again. Thanks.
