My father had the tnt in 1970 and our neighbor had this blizzard I was 6 and the neighbor would take me for rides and you had to be careful because I sat infront of him and if your suit got too close to those three carbs it would stall out . Good memories.
We had a 775 2 cylinder Blizzard and how many times I remember leaning into a turn and my snowmobile suite getting sucked into the velocity stacks and flooding the engine.
Takes me back to the 'ole days - my first sled was a 292 TNT and second was a 399 Olympic. Gotta love the bogey era. Fix or repair daily. If it got ya' to the fishhut with the beer still bungie'd to the seat...it was a good day.
They were cool back in the day - scary now, so tippy - side to side. An insane combination, huge engine and not very stable, but it was a cutting edge machine back in the day.
Jesus, that's a nasty bastard! I remember sleds like this from when I was a kid. Guys used to drag race 'em around this area where I grew up and now live.
I remember a "distant" lol! Neighbor had a 669 blizzard on his farm 1.5 miles away I could hear him open up that blunder buss lol! Along with everyone else too.
@@TheBergmark OK, Thanks for that explanation, I guess I never yet heard of that story. Great old times, they were pretty tough fellas to ride those old tanks as hard as they did.
That's an actual factory blizzard. I had a 640, 292, 340, and a guy named Brokenshire had a 775. My dad had a snomobile gang in the seventies. Cool time.

Someone needs to make more of these compact snowmachine
That is bad ass and that’s where it all started two-stroke triples can’t live without them
What a great old school beast! Would love to ride one just once!
That would be a bucket list ride!
Me too.thats the first one of them I ever seen go in person. Said he took a f7 firecat with it on the lake that day lol
@@kodiakyamaha8688 You mean he beat an F7 with that Ol Blizzard?
It's like an Elan on steroids. LOL. 👍
I can smell this video
No limp mode on that beastie.
That was awesome!! ROCK ON OLD SCHOOL FRIEND'S!!!!!!
Back in time, Yvon Duhamel win a lot of race with almost same sleds…
The only thing he didn't win was the
Soo i 500
I almost forgot about the early triple Snowmobiles
Had an early 70s TNT 440 when I was growing up. It was a blast.
I had one like that but I think it was called an Olympic
Nice,looks like you got it running good. Skidoo🏁
Scarf eating carbs lol

Yes it was a friend of mine who owned it.dont see them very often.had a whole ton truck bed full of old sleds that day!
That reminds me of the 3 cyl Kawasaki motorcycles. Remember them. The 500 and 750 H1 and h2 they were called, I think. They just screamed.
I’d be afraid it’d suck my one piece suit into those big carbs!
Yeah, I started on a sled that had one card like that, it was a bit weird at first with it sucking right near my gut
Sweet blizzard
640 F/A 💥💥💥💥💥
Sounds good
Reminds me of an old ass dude that just did a cycle of roids now he's back with some beef
Bitch watch this cleated track go
@@americanmullet6083 had rubber track conversion
I didn't know they had 3 cylinders back on the old ones
amazing machine

Memories!
I wonder who the legendary racer was who raced that machine?
Yvon Duhamel.
Yvon Who?
@@TheBergmark Google him, if you have never heard of one of the greatest sled racers from back in the day.
@@Redlinesixtynine i know who he was, i remember a hat that Mike Trapp had with the text "Yvon Who"🙂
@@TheBergmark OK, Thanks for that explanation, I guess I never yet heard of that story. Great old times, they were pretty tough fellas to ride those old tanks as hard as they did.
Need more videos!
775?
797
That’s cool a/f
The trail shutter downer . Put a fukn muffler on that thing for the love of god 🤣
How do you figure.its saposed to sound like that.you must drive a 4 stroke lol
It’s triple tune pipe originally….
whats the motor? Rotax or Hirth or.....
Rotax
A+
797 ?........776 ?
797 was the Hirth triple . It came in the SM moto skis and maybe a couple of others
No the hirth was a 793 not 797.
It’s actually a 775 TNT ski-doo not a blizzard
A 775 TNT had a 771cc Rotax twin cylinder engine, NOT a triple.....

@@mikeevanoski1108it’s a 640.
I had a 82 9500 plus blizzard 440 . Thing would dust anything up to 70
The old blizzards were fine machines. I had a 5500 blizzard with 503 fan cooled 😎
@@kodiakyamaha8688 wow my neighbor had a new 5500. That started me on my Blizzard path.
