Re: WTS 1969 thiokol spryte 1201b

yes its forsale yet..it sitting in the shed in storage right now....what do you mean regular service for the year??
 
Re: WTS 1969 thiokol spryte 1201b

Hi, sorry for the dumb questions.............new to this game. Can the tracks be cut down to keep the unit to 96" of total width without sacrificing performance in or on top of snow? Concerned about hauling legally without permits. Also could you please estimate length and overall weight? Thank you, Jerry.:smile:
 
Re: WTS 1969 thiokol spryte 1201b

Cutting down the track might not be a good idea. It would affect the performance on snow, and the grousers would have to be cut down, again not a good idea, if you have to find replacements some day....Wide load plackards would be sufficent in most states for moving it. It probably weighs in around 7,500 lbs. or so...

Re: WTS 1969 thiokol spryte 1201b

yah what he said lol i haul it down the road without permets i just tie red flags on the tracks, for the length i can go and measure it tonight
 
Re: WTS 1969 thiokol spryte 1201b

I would check with the state laws first to see exactly what you can & can not do. Maybe they issue yearly oversize permits for a reasonable fee. I know your allowed 102" wide everywhere. Your tracks alone take up 90".
 
Re: WTS 1969 thiokol spryte 1201b

And if you are only going to camp one time, detrack it and go.

Once you do the tracks once you can put them on in about an hour or less.

Just sayin

Re: WTS 1969 thiokol spryte 1201b

i don't think the price is too outlandish kind of suprised that it has not sold yet
 
Re: WTS 1969 thiokol spryte 1201b

If I didn't have a Snow Trac I might have bought it by now. The only draw back I see is the width on some trails around here, and maybe it would work. Nice unit for sure, and priced right IMHO.

Winter is comming, time to buy!

I realize you're in Minnesota, but there's a decent sized used snowcat market in Utah. I think many people here in the west would consider the wide tracks a plus.

We're entering prime selling season, have you considered listing it on KSL.com?
 
Re: WTS 1969 thiokol spryte 1201b

I've bought much more on KSL than I've sold, and sometimes listing stuff for sale has been a bit cumbersome. That said, I've always thought it's because I'm pretty clumsy using a computer.

I honestly do think if you persevere with KSL you'll get your Thiokol listed.

Best of luck...
 
Re: WTS 1969 thiokol spryte 1201b

Do you just have the one bench seat behind the drivers area ? What is the inside dimensions of the entire rear cab ? What is a good cuising speed for that machine on hardpacked snowroads ? I am looking for a machine that I can move 12 passengers plus driver for 6 to 8 miles each morning and return them in the evening.

Thanks
 
Re: WTS 1969 thiokol spryte 1201b

cruising speed about 11-12 mph. and yes only one bench set., but there is room to put more..ill get the dimensions tonight..
