Looks like an 84 Trailfire. Not mine, just browsing Craigslist and came across it.

Re: 84 Trailfire
You guys are going to have to get the serial number for this one. Suspect items include chrome handle bars, what looks like a non-locking glove box door and a '78-'79 snow flap. The decals look right but the silver frost looks off (could be the lighting). Too far away for me.

Re: 84 Trailfire
Chrome handlebars and a what appears to be a 1979 model snowflap. Decals are 84 minus the Trailfire script on the hood sides. Difficult to tell from the pictures but the Winterfrost paint just doesn't look correct. If I lived closer I'd stop in for a closer look.

Great minds think alike at almost the same time.

Re: 84 Trailfire
I agree it looks like a 79 with 84 decals. The build date will tell the rest of the story....Terre

Re: 84 Trailfire
Looks to be the same sled I had our friends in turtle town investigate for me a few years ago. If memory serves it was a 79 in 84 drag as you have astutely pointed out. You guys are good.

Nope. That one was a true 84 with 241 actual miles if I remember right. I can go check. We paid a little to much for it though. I think I dropped $175 for it. But it was a 9 out of 10. Sometimes you gotta pay for nice things.
Skol Vikings.
Of course I am just kidding.
