John Deere video

Pretty cool. Makes me want to get the old '71 out for a ride. Too bad it's buried under 4' feet of snow.

Had a JDX4 as a kid. But the dream was to race a Liquidator. HaHa!

They had some sweet sleds back then. Those were good times. You would look out the window at night and see headlights bobbing across the field towards you and you knew it was time to go mix up a jug of fuel cause it was gonna be a long night. Lol.

As a kid ran a 600, x8, and a liquifire. Fun sleds.

If John Deere ever got back in the sled market. I'd be 1st in line for one. I love my Green and Yellow

My dad had a 440 LiquidFire back in the late 70's or maybe early 80's, he sure liked it and it was powerful.
We ended up as year went by pulling the ski's and skid out and putting a set of wheels on it. Holy crap, what a blast, that JD would smoke them wheels LOL.

I'd love to see a picture of that.

Have fond memories of my old JDX as well as my 1976 Liquifire.....except the Liquifire had no rear bumper , just 2 plastic passenger handgrips on tunnel......bitch to get unstuck.......was this normal or just my sled?

 

[brew_doo]

My current JDXM... first sled was a 440 cyclone - tons of fun and laughs on that machine.

Here's mine at last years vintage ride. Buried in the back yard somewhere right now.

got out on the weekend. couple picts

 

[snopro]

I admire you guys in that you are still keeping these sleds in great shape and running condition. Not a lot of parts available for these old timers anymore. Keep sending those pics!

 

[moyiesledhead]

It's amazing what you can build yourself for parts with a little creativity. The old iron is pretty basic design.
