Re: Another 78 CC Found...
Hey Troy,
You are correct, both sleds have added covers over the headlights for protection. They are separate pieces of lexan cut to fit. You can also see where holes were cut in the side of the hood, behind the windshields, for air inlets since the opening next to the headlight is cut off.
Duane,
Thanks, and having any CC track and skid is cool! I have no idea how many kits were made for 78, but any kitted Liquifire is a great find.
Thanks guys,

Re: Another 78 CC Found...
Is there a series of CC race tips and updates such as the one you posted?
Would make for some interesting reading if you care to share.

Re: Another 78 CC Found...
Hi Todd,
Deere published racing tips for the 340/s and a series of them for the Liquidator and 78 CC. I think Greg has most of the 78 ones. I have copies and some originals from the guys here and off evilBay, but they are in NY and I am in Germany this week. If they don't get posted sooner, I will try to dig them out on my next trip to NY.
