The lack of stripes on the hood says it's an 80'. I'd be very interested if anyone's headed toward Toledo. Transport...anyone? :usa: Tom

Ok maybe its not an 80' no stripes on the hood but has painted handle bars, and the wider track. Cannot tell if the tunnel is bare aluminum or painted? Clean sled though. :usa:

Tunnels bare I can post a pic of the serial number. I think it was number 28 of the line so maybe it never got the stripes who knows.

serial number J44FK 155612M , Charlie picked this up last year so not to sure on the story I guess it does have some different stuff on it. The previous owner was not a collector and really just had the sled sitting around so I don't think it had a bunch of nos parts put on it from other years

Hello I know this is off topic from the trailfire but I see you have 2 liquidators. I don't know if you seen my post about trying to find my dads or not but I was curious as to what the serial #s are on yours being as close to Wisconsin that you are. Thanks for your time.
