snowmobile

Been buying restoring selling sleds for years now and I think this one might be the worst one Iv'e tackled yet
The hood(made of plastic) was stained a brown from whatever so I sanded it from 120 grit to 2500 grit ,painted everything else , just short a seat at this point.

Re: snowmobile

That's what I am talking about! I like the unusual, and being from considerably south of you that is unusual. Also, I like to see any old thing given a new life. I've done everything from chainsaws to sprinklers.

The satisfaction of seeing the before and after I guess is what does it for me.
That one is the 3rd one of that model that I have done

Re: snowmobile

Looking good! I love snowmobiling and the last night or two the air has had that slight chill to it signaling that a new season is just around the corner!
