Re: 1983 John Deere Smurf-Fire
Good Chance that it would turn out to be an 83 model since there were only 2,400 of them produced ! 
but you just never KNOW. thats where the VIN comes into play ! 
I actually have this one saved on my favorites to get checked out ! Appears to be great parts sled ! 
Still having a hard time understanding why people call these (RARE) hmmm....
Just maybe I should buy it to match my midnight blue 84 snowfire !

Bamber,
That is very rare and sought after "Pol-Fire" with the prototype Comet 103-D super hydronic drive clutch with new Back Shifting (B.S.) system.
I hear you can add the aftermarked "Disco Don" package for some real style.

Re: 1983 John Deere Smurf-Fire
Gas cap location suggests it's an '83 or '84. 1982's had the gas cap on the left.

Re: 1983 John Deere Smurf-Fire
Normally in a case like this where it's sooo close I'm willing to help guys out by looking at it for them. That said Bob, Sean, myself and our families are about to go to Florida so I can't be of assistance. No interest from me for the sled for what it's worth. Too many projects now.
