    To think that each machine back in the day was THE hottest coolest have to have ride and in a year or two it was eclipsed by something better , you just don't realize the evolution until you see a collection like this.

    In the late 80s, I was in my late teens and bought a 69 Artic Cat, leopard skin pattern seat and all. Somebody had re- powered it and it was a BEAST, for what it was. The enclosed ski at the beginning almost looked like an AMC Gremlin. Great video, Thanx!!!👍👍

    Drove the Moto Ski at 3:03 and the Scorpion at 4:30 when I was in high school, Scorpion I believe had a 18 hp and a Moto Ski Ms18/28hp, which sadly couldn't find in video. Miss those days.

    Cool video of some vintage iron I have never seen.....I noticed that there were no “RUPP” model snowmobiles in that collection!
    I still have my 1974 RUPP Nitro II that I purchased in 1975 in Williston ND from Duane’s Radiator Shop, local dealer, still have the RUPP 2-piece snowmobile suit as well.

      Scott, I agree.
      These sleds rekindle many memories and experiences from my past. Every enthusiast appreciates the (iconic) design and engineering advancements for each era. DNA of these sleds are found in every snowmobile made today.

    Thanks for your video.
    About Old Snowmobiles it's incredible.
    Really - I have never seen so many models of snowmobile.
    I saw there incredible models. It would have been interesting if the owners would have put a small card showing the year and the model. If possible, I would like to have the information of the place (Such as address /The geographical coordinates) and the details of the event; It is an annual fair, or a special day.
    I really like having the coordinates of the places where interesting things happen.
    I know that Zumbrota, MN is in USA.
    I also saw your text talking about a deceased neighbor.
    So I believe (this sale / or storerooms exist) is because of the death of Mr. Clemens. But I can not believe that this man had kept all these old machines. Even in a century it is impossible to have been the owner of all this.
    👍
    Thank you very much for any information.

      Idk what you mean by that. My first sled was a 76 polaris. It was already over 20yr old when i started riding it and it was bought non running from a junkyard. Cleaned the fuel system. Thst was it, fired up second pull. Other than track tension and replacing skags i did nothing but fill it with premix for the 6 or 7 years i had it. And i beat the hell out of it.

    I like double tracks, but in Sweden it is almost impossible
    to find a decent SkiDoo double tracks, but I had one before.
    The only double tracks I got later,
    is an Ockelbo Trioman.
