We found this at a local phone company auction sale. :thumb: They bought it new and used it till 1997. It has been in storage since then. They prefer to use thier snowmobiles because they are faster.

A few more. Polar's mechanic must have flooded it. I just noticed the screwdriver in the carb.

I'm not sure of the year. It was advertised as a 1973. It is a liquid cooled V-4 Ford industrial. The log book was in the cab. It was last used in 1997. Polar's mechanic cleaned the carb and gas tank. It runs strong, but I plan on checking it over and changing all fluids before we take it out to play. Thats a long time to sit unused in the shed.

Thanks everyone, for the compliments. We were lucky to find this one! I'll get to play a little while we finish the Spryte.
 
I never had much problem with it frosting up or being too cold but I bungied the door open and wore lots of clothes :smile:
Other people probably have more experience than me ....
