a new find....
I was having beers with a few friends last night and one said, "hey you like old snowmobiles, don't you?" We took off and he showed me a 295s with I-500 stickers on it. Don't know if it's for sale or not. It was in pretty nice shape although I had my beer goggles on by then. I'll update you after I find out what is what.

well said and very true just make sure the man knows how well you appreciate the sled and when you get to ride it make sure you are very greatful and in time he may give it up. Knowing how much you enjoy it may atleast put you 1st inline when the day comes.ICCSF 108 wrote: Grant, Remember nothing is absolute in this world except death, bide your time someday it will pay off..

If it's a 300, it's at least a '74.
The wife been handing out favors? Why the sudden bunch of free sleds flying out your ass?
