nice to see someone took care of it and must have been kept indoors its whole life! We have a few early 70's Cats in our fleet that were preserved as well as yours. I'm looking at getting a hood redone on my 74 el tigre, so I thought I'd see if you had your hood redone and what was involved.

I love the 377 Citations. This is my current SS in 2019 at the McBride Bung Bung vintage ride. We had a 4500 growing up and I had to have another.

I'm looking for a citation 4500 if any one has a clean one!

That’s my high mark lol. The Lucille cabin is just below me. If I had a better track than the belt sander thats on it, I would have done substantially better. Lots of track speed, but all spin.

Zoom in center, and you can see the cabin.

This one isn't mine but it is identical, 1974 very loud as it is a full mod. Also have the 1975 sst f/a amazing old sled

Back in ‘74, you had to be dealer sponsored to get a Thunderjet, which my friend was. He sure spanked a lot of larger displacement sleds with that 340. He would win the open mod races with it as the bigger sleds couldn’t corner as fast… fun times.

Got about 20 kms on my ‘74 Elan 250 deluxe this week. I should figure out how to post a picture.

keepin this thread alive, love seeing the vintage stuff. Here's my 74 340 on my maiden voyage last week, drove 22 hours round trip to pick up a few months ago!

It's sad to see . This sled look like new 30 years ago when i tried to buy it. I stumbled across it again last week . They still won't sell it

Not as old as some of these 70's sleds on here...but here's my 1990 Formula Plus 500. Can't believe how fast this sled still is!

Not exactly sure. I heard people ripping around on the ice yesterday, so I went out today to check it out. Stayed close to their tracks and didn't venture more than a dozen yards from shore. Then went and hit the local trails for about an hour. Sooo nice to get out for a brrraaaap!

My son picked up a scorpion this fall for a case of beer and my daughter got a 370 scud for free. Will post some pictures this weekend.

I ride my silver Bullet a least once every year for the last 42 years take it out to the vintage rides in Elk Point and Myrnam when the clubs have one my favorite for riding in the tight trails lots of fun

Nothing sounds like those early 70’s Arctic Cats.
