Where did you find it? I haven't seen one of those in that good of shape out side of a museum. Is there more pics?

I found it on a Facebook site in Red Deer. The fella just bought it from an original owner in Sask. This guy had a new baby on the way so agreed to sell it to me. I paid pretty good for it but it’s a sentimental sled to me. Seat is perfect. May put a track on it. Will decide once I get it out for the resto. Runs with the primer so thinking it needs new pilot jets.

Pretty cool find

I bet once you get it all serviced and cleaned out it will go pretty good. Love the look of that sled!

Yep they were fast back in the day. First sled I tried oval racing with and won my amateur B class with it in Milo when we had NWSA racing. 10 years later racing was over in Alberta. Thank god. Spent way to much lol
