Year -1976
Serial # -J44LE 056837M
Build Date -9/75
Original/Restored -Both
My Name- RJ Feulner
Location -Latham,NY
Owned since - 1976 "My Father"
Original dealer -Mudges-Hensonville,NY
History/Race #- Bought by my father from my Cousin in 1976 "Used " with low miles, under a 100.

Special Comments- This sled was almost lost. It was in rough shape and I am now in the process of redoing the sled. This sled holds a lot of great family memories and is very sentimental. It means a lot to me to get the sled back to what it used to be so my father can take her out and enjoy her a couple of last times."This is for you Dad"
