Kristi KT7 restoration pictures

Hi you all! :respect:
Hows the forums ? I am still at the ranch ,trying to work between snow storms. It is just wet enough to keep me from starting the barn . I sunk the tractor yesterday !

I should be returning to Calif next week to finish up the old KT7. The break has done me well . A lot was accomplished here on the ranch . I fixed the local cafe's holes in the ceiling ,installed a new bathroom in the nieghbors place and helpped cleaned up the old towns forgotten Cementary while waiting for the rain and snow to stop :snow2_smi: .

The Elk have taken over and we have a couple different herds here on the ranch , all the time . We also have one Hippy Elk that I named "Mangy Mike " .Ugliest little fellow you ever saw .He is quite a resemblance to Mouse ear Mike (AKA Snowcat Complications) .He never combs his hair and just looks dazed ,all the time . ! The bulls are starting to grow their new horns and most are in the buttom stage now.

The Towns people seem real excited about a snowcat meet and the local VFW has expressed an interest in throwing a little "Wingding" for us .The Hotsprings are getting new owners and they are talking about building a new place to eat after the old one burnt down . That would be great .:thumb: :alc: . Looks like I may have a guy to do a pit BarBQue for us .Now if it will only turn nice ,so I can build the barn !

I know all this conversation is a little off topic but it seemed like a update was needed .

Man ! I almost forgot :poke: ! We have a couple of them Snot Tracs up here. The two local boys use them for "Chicken Coops" .
Painted "Chicken Sh#t yellow they look pretty good ! They said they never worked for anything else.Just bogged down in the snow ,just like their Snot Trac owners . The old owners even paid the boys $50 apiece to just take them off their hands .

Last time anyone saw those two old owners they were headed to town to see if "good ole Big Al" would be willing to part with one of his Incredible Kristi's SnowCats .

Thats right Snot trackers :poke: !!! Nothin's Changed.

GOOD MORNING!
Boy's and Girls.

Coffee's on ,Doors open . Come on in,relax and set a spell .:tiphat:
 
I comb my hair! Sometimes. Yup we all know just how reliable those Kristis are. They run SO good. Lets see. Of all the Kristi owners on the forums I believe only ONE actually has a working Kristi. Glad to hear you will be back soon. Been itchin to beat up on my favorite KT-7 Owner. Oh wait there is only one KT-7. Well at least you got the one that didnt burn up. Or did you? :yum:

Glad you will be back BigAl. Drive safely! :thumb: :respect:
 
Big Al,

Glad you're still stomping around and thanks for the update. Sounds like you're having a good R&R up there in Idaho. Good weather should be around the corner......

Gary
 
OK ! Show me the love :respect: ! I leave for 6 weeks and the :shitHitFan: . You Snot Trac guys seem to always be trying to cause problems everytime I go off somewhere:argueing: .Bob P. , I do appreciate the loyalty you have shown to the superior Kristi Snowcat brand in my absents .

I arrived back in Calif after 14 hour drive from the Ranch in Idaho. I been here 12 hours now and am ready to leave again . I just can't stand Calif .

The Barn pad is now cut and I lined up some labor help when I return in about 3 weeks .

I'll wander out to the shop in a few minutes to see if any Snot Trackers have crawled under my locked shop door and messed with Yetti ,while I was gone or pooped on my lawn :fart2: .

When I left for Idaho ,I still was facing a problem with the drive system on Yetti . I 'll take a few days and start attacking that again . I would like to take Yetti with me to Idaho in 3 weeks .
Al
 
All Right! "Big Mouth", er, ah I mean "Big AL" is back. Things have been pretty tame without his proverbial wisdom. I guess he missed all the stuff directed at him and will have to sift thru the dozens of new threads and hundred of post just to catch up. Welcome Back, and get that Yetti going! YUR Hold'n up progress!
 
Dear Lyndon and Mike ,

Yes ,I recieved your "Tear Stained Emails " begging me to start posting ASAP and breathe life back into you less fortunate Snot Trac owners .
Last I heard Lyndon was up north trying to do a remake of the movie "North to Alaska and Mouse Ear Mike was looking for Baby moon hubcaps and fake white fur to wrap his mirror , for his Snot Trac recreation " Mighty Mouse" .
I have been busy dodging Snow Flakes and attempting to get a barn out of the dirt . It has been to wet to do much . The pad is cut and I will return in 3 weeks to start the building .
I had my hydro repair manual waiting for me when I returned to help solve my drive problem and with renewed energy I will get it completed .
I also need to pick up my new motor for the KT4 which needs completion and will be used mostly for retrieving lost and dejected Snot Trac owners who lose thier "Baby Moon Hubcaps" and get stuck , or try to remake a John Wayne Movie and end up more looking like a Pee Wee Herman type Movie . A lot of you folks may not know that the Ole Duke owned a "Kristi" . He used it to win many wars, beat up the indians, and travel "North To Alaska". He was a Kristi Legend .

So Yea ! I'm Back . I read a few lies you all posted . I mean replies ....
As my Wife always says " You can't keep a good Kristi man down :boobies: !!!! Hee Hee .
Good Morning !!!!! Coffee is hot and so am I .:coolshade
 
Here I was waiting till noon to call you. I felt you would have been exhausted from the drive. BUT I guess that poor YAK in the garage has been nagging at the back of your brain to TRY and get running again!:yum: When the time comes call me and I will bring my new Alaskan Bush Gun to put that Yak out of its misery! OR If you want I could just bring you that Fake pearl handled Raven Arms .25 automatic in its pleather holster I bought at the last gun show just for this SPECIAL occassion.:yum:

WELCOME BACK BIGAL!
 
Dearest Mouse ear ,
Last I heard ,you could not even hit the broad side of a barn ,if you were standing inside it ,when you fired off your little pop pistol :2gunsfiri . You Snot Trac guys better stick to shoveling Bull sh#t:fart2: . It seems to be what you all do best .......:coolshade :poke: :yum: :yum:
 
Welcome back Al. In defense of you and the other Kristi owners, I finally have both of mine home as well as the Imp. My Kristis run!!! Both of them !! How many Kristis Now? Not ready for any long distance runs ,but all 3 will run and move under their own power. My wife looks out the kitchen windows and says hhmmmm his and hers Kristis ?? Think I will keep her!! Byron
 
Another running Kristi here. Alas, poor Mikeys wife...she looks out the kitchen windows and sees a circus tent full of clown car parts! :poke: :yum:

Now Bob wait a minute. You have to think of it in terms you are familiar with. Like say when your wife goes and gets that mustache waxed off. My Snow Master is just in for a little beauty treatment. Thats all.:rolf2: :finger3 f

Hey ! Thats great ! I know you were having a hard time getting the one back , that was in Kansas or near there because of all the snow storms .
We have a old fella near me in Idaho that will replace my VW Engine in the KT3 for $800 installed!!! I just may haul it up and let him do it . I think it would sell better running . I need to get going on the KT4 ,but there are so many "honey do's" to take care of before returning to Idaho . I just started pressure washing the house to reoil it before heading back .That will take 4 more days . Busy,busy,busy!

My son who is a Sheriff's officer in this county just told me they picked up a brand new snow cat for the department . The old one goes on the auction block this month if anyone is interested . I do not know the brand but look under Nevada County Goverment for a surplus equipment sale .

And Mouse ear : Yes, I am feelin good ! So Good and Awnry in fact " I could crap in my hand and rub it in my hair . :coolshade ... Or yours.........:yum:
 
Yes, I am feelin good ! So Good and Awnry in fact " I could crap in my hand and rub it in my hair .
Wow, if that is what you do for fun up there in Idaho then I'm not sure I want to be downwind of you :shit7:
 
Here are photos of the 2 Kristis and Imp Byron

Nice stable. I've seen those Kristis somewhere before. In fact, I'm thinking of painting mine in a scheme similar to your red one. Only overall bright yellow with black stripes where yours has yellow stripes. It should look like caution tape!

How (or for what) do you use that boom crane on the Imp?
 
Bob, The little crane was intended for rescuing broken snowmobiles and helping with building projects at my cabin in Alaska. This imps previous owner used it to harvest Christmas trees in muddy fields where the only other harvesting method was helicopter. Byron
 
Bob for a color scheme I am thinking you should paint it all black with a big white stripe all the way down the back! :shit2: Then you could name your Kristi Pepe Le pew!
