There is an 83 sprinty on CL in Vermont listed under John deer sled he is asking 700 but I have him down to 250. Still a little high for me. Someone should grab it.

You have him down almost 60% and leave him hanging? Go get it.

Wow check for spark, compression, track condition, hacked up wires ETC ETC ... A gasket Kit for this is $85.... pistons are not available, tracks are long gone (new ones) how bad do you want it ? I just bought a running 83 sprintfire for $75 locally.. ! Just saying once again a case of too many Zero's on the starting price ! Where did the one go that was on EBAY ?? It was a decent 83' ..

Wow!
I would trip over myself for a Sprintfire under $200 in WI.
If it's got under 2,000 mi & everything checks out I'd have to go for it @ $250.
But then again I pretty much ONLY drive the Sprints.
So that's just me.
Maybe that's why I have 4 of them now.

Rob that's what I'm saying if it was running and not in need of that much work no problem. But I have an 83 that needs a major face lift so in passing it on to a fellow jdsled guy.

Why would you even talk him down if you had no intentions of buying it?

I would buy it if I could get to a price that I feel comfortable at. With an 8 hour round trip and fuel price I thought that was still high. I had thought I would share with with you guys with more cash and room to work with.

What! 8hrs really? Is it northern VT? Tell him your lookin at a long haul. Maybe he will feel bad and lower price!

Mr Deere you should pick it up your a little closer than me. Also there is an 83 snowfire in sterling ma. He won't tell me the vin# or mfd so I'm not totally sure.

Jim the snowfire in Sterling is already bought and paid for. It is sitting at Mr Deere's (aka Bob) house waiting for me ! It is an 84. Yes I had the same trouble getting the kid talked into giving me the Vin ! So i made him tell me the manf date ! He was very difficult to work with but patience paid off !sled is in good shape and is number #238 of 276 produced !
