My Father bought this brand new in 77. Has a "prototype" suspension. Looks like the 80000+ serial suspension. He gave it to my younger brother in 91 as a HS graduation gift. He had a few years and sold it. Somehow, I have it back now. Never raced, don,t think these are raced. Father just passed away on 12/21/2012. Sled stopped running too.
All bad cell pics of when first got it.
