72 500 with Electric start for sale

jd 500 7 (640x360).jpg
I am Selling my 1972 John Deere 500 snowmobile With Electric Start. Asking 400.00 OBO Sled has been stored indoors most of it life. Motor will run on spray, but does need new fuel lines and a carb gasket kit, Motor is a ccw 440 and still has 125 and 130 psi compression. Electric starter does work with a battery charger. but old battery may need replacement. Skis and tunnel are straight. head light and dash lights work. Has a speedo but no rpm gauge, Kill switch is also working. Seat has a few cracks but foam is still in good condition. Wind shield is missing along with some nuts and bolt, hood has a previous repair but is overall useable and is OK.

I am selling this sled cause I see no point to letting it sit. just won't have the time to get to anytime soon.

I am open to a trade For a JDX 4 or JDX 8 Running or not, as these are my main focus as a hobby. I have more pic if needed via email
