Beautiful Sleds. Most look like new. I used to restore snowmobiles as a hobby and sell them. The degree of these restorations goes way beyond me. Mine were for people to use, not show. I knew a collector and loved to go to his storage barn and look at his collection. He sold them all a few years back. I used to buy parts from him. He worked 3 days a week at the hospital making twice what I made in two weeks. The rest of his time he bought BARN FIND sleds and restored them. Many took him several years per sled to restore. I had several of those John Deere sleds myself. I have been Novi down state. There is a Sled Museum up in the UP of Michigan that has many cool vintage snowmobiles.
My neighbors dad had a John Deere spitfire when i was growing up. It eventually blew up and got buried in the grandparents barn. His parents divorced soon after and it sat in that barn for 20 years. Last year he dug it out when he inherited the property, and started to rebuild it for his son. He called me when he got it going finally last week. What an amazing trip down memory lane that was, great old sled.
Great stories!!..keep an coming!!👍
these are sleds I grew up riding. I laugh and shake my head every time I hear people with new sleds crying about how rough the trails are.
Couldn't agree more!!..well said!!and no hand warmers!..run what ya brung!!👍
LMAO!!! Yeah, they have it so bad! They oughtta try running any of these babies 50mph down an ungroomed trail! I'll betcha the new sleds ride better on powerlines and 2 tracks than these do on groomed trails. Plus free-air sleds always ran hot, unless it was 10 below zero. What modern rider has to worry about overheating? Or pull a Tillotson carb to free the needle and seat??!!!!
@@milojanis4901 I love those old tillotson HD carbs.
These are how snowmobiles,in my mind anyways should look like.
Well said,,grew up on the oldies,,1970,71,73,76,Ski-doo..love all the classics!!!..keep am rolling!!👍
Great catch. I brings me back to early '70......
For the King Kats there were three versions of this one year only model. 650 triple JLO, 793 triple Hirth, 800 four Kawasaki.
.... SUPER COOL ..! .....
Larry would be so happy to have this one !
My cousin had a chaparral. I remember trying to hold on to the rear bars. It vibrated so much that your hands were just suspended around the bar.
Did I see a Schmidt sport pack? Lots of fun in the seventies.
I so miss my 250 EXT!
2:35 I thought I knew my sleds but I never heard of a King Cat.
Only made one model year, 1971 in 650,793 triple and 800 four banger. Strictly for racing.
Museum sleds!
26 or so years ago right out of high school I had 3 of the 433 Yamaha's 2 of the three would run but it wasn't always the same 2... it was crazy... 70-72 if I remember correctly .tilitlston soak your balls in gas carburetor....bogey suspension.....from Wyoming USA
The biggest king cat that was back in the day was a 880 4 cylinder not a 1000cc it was a 880cc
That 880 was a custom one off. The production model was an 800 Kawasaki. We were dealers back then.
Where is this at ?
I didn't see any Fox snowmobiles or colemans.😎🏂🏁
I started snowmobiling in 69 and went to snowmobile shows. I could name at least 20 different brands not shown. Back in those days there must have been at least 35+ different brands.
Why the hell did you just by past the 73' eltigre 440 f/a like it wasn't even there.
Oh cuz you just jizzed all over the king cat?
Whatever bumpkin boy.
