I will pictures of the sled my father inlaw bought. It's a 197? Olympic 390. The thing is in mint condition it only has 2or3 tanks of gas through it from brand new! The paint ain't even wore off the bottom skis! And the best part it has the factory tarp that's not ripped!

1990 Formula Mach 1

I know others have seen this before but I just had to post again. It's almost 25 yrs old and still looks new. It's the "Original 583" with the first year of the r.a.v.e. which changed snowmobile engines for all the manufacturers. This is a 1990 and I know it's not quite "vintage" but it's getting closer every year and is the sled I was in love with when it first came out, and I love this sled as much today as I did then. They were a rocket ship on rails and very easy to soup up. No issues getting over 100 mph. I smile every year when I dig the old girl out from under her cover and get her ready to go for a ride.

I always thought our '90 was a '91 till just recently but I have a lot of hours on dad's '90 Forumla MX, and it still gets plenty of use today :) hell, might take it out this weekend for a few hours if I head home. Man, is yours ever clean.

Awesome sled, I was talking to you about buying it when you had it on kijiji a couple yrs ago, the 1989 mach 1 was the first rave valve sled, but 90's were the better of the two, brother had one brand new, thing would clean house for its time, his 91 with the 617 always had to be running as hot as it could or the 90 would out run it, awesome to see a sled like this in that shape
