1979 SPITFIRE for sale for parts/restore

Post by BlitzBlack73 »

I am done with JD's. I have to get back to my Yammy projects.
PARTS ONLY>>>>>>>>>>>
79 John Deere Spitfire..aka "Polaris Spitfire"...runs good..starts on 1 pull...125++PSI in each jug. Engine is awesome....Track has a break in it, but comes with a nice replacement from Matt. Exhaust is good, hood is useable once painted...some yahoo painted it black and put Polaris where Spitfire should be and left orig side decals...seat foams all their, just need cover. frame is snapped where tunnel meets engine mounts...still solid...RUNS AND DRIVES...PARTS ONLY. I would not put my kid on this with the cracked frame. Was going to weld, but I am not set up to weld aluminum. If you can weld aluminum, you got a rideable ditch-banger. Lots of good useable parts on this sled......$125...email for pics

No, the Walbro37 from Johnnycyclone worked fine on the JDX4 and is functioning..The Spitfire has no running/carb issues...runs and drives...just can't weld aluminum
