1982 Sprintfire
Sprintfires are my favorite of the Deere's! I bought this sled from a fellow Deere junky (Greg) just south of me. Finding the open hood was the hardest task I've ever faced in finding parts. The motor got new crank seals, carb rebuilt, skis and rear skid sand blasted and powder coated matte black, Installed gas shock, Bergstrom skegs with ski savers, muffler powder coated with high temp., used NOS Sprintfire JD belt M68715. It makes a world of difference! Reduces take off lag.
This sled has optional heated grips, tach and 1,400 miles on her. I will be attending my first RWTC 2015! and driving this!

Re: 1982 Sprintfire
That's a nice ride!
Makes me want to NOT head up there with my "dirty" '83's
(Just jealous) I just wish I had that much talent.
Windshield from ? if you don't mind.

Re: 1982 Sprintfire
THANKS GUYS!!
I like keeping the original dealer tag on tunnel especially since we still do business with that dealer to this day.
The windshield came from a package deal of sleds I bought a year ago.
All we can do is hope Cannon Classic sleds windshields opens up again some day!
