Dad had a Polaris Charger 396 , I never see them when your at a show ,The HERTERS ! In Gold not Red , HERTERS RULES ! Thanks ! That’s how I got started , sitting in front of Grandpa , I was so young , Good Times !
Grandpa’s HERTERS is Bright Red , single head light , older than the gold one , that’s up in the garage too , my family doesn’t get rid of anything , never know when your going to have to reassemble the Still , Beer & Alcohol got outlawed again ? But I see they sell miniature ones on line , don’t go blind !
Clean the carbs guys 🍻🍻 Thanks again for taking us along Nutter 👍 As my handle is Indy Guy Rob, I of course gravitate to all those beautiful Indy’s! I’m with you, that 82 500 is stunning! What a beauty! Wish mine looked like that lol. That RXL is a 90.5 year, my personal favourite of all the RXL’s Valdi is such a riot! Pass the beer nuts lol Cheers 🍻
1968 TX 500 was the race machine built basically for the Winnipeg to St Paul 500. Reason for the TX 500 name. They ran the 396 single JLO in that race and almost all had a megaphone hanging out of the hood! They also came with a big 744 JLO that they raced that year. First year experimental aluminum chain case as well. Awesome machine.
In the old days, almost everyone in the neighborhood rode, 10 to 15 sleds would leave at once, ride to the supper club, eat, probably have a few ? 20 miles each way, and they were gone for a long time mom said, progress was slow, before groomed trails, late 50’s & 60’s , before I was born , neighbors riding , and Square Dancing , they liked to have fun , Neighbors
Wow what an ending to that awesome video, I just bought a 71 puma Mod that Danny Johnson built and it's got a John Sinna motor in it, that was cool to see him in your video
Still have a Panther 440 in mint condition up in Grandpa’s garage, always dropped a cylinder, bought at the Dodge dealer new, needs a different ignition system, they never got it to run good
The Saber I believe was manufactured in Buffalo NY, with northway assistant by Recreative later to become Buffalo Recreative who manufactured 6 wheel amphibian machines. Never seen other than in books. So thank you for that. I use to make parts for them in the 90s. (6 wheelers)

you didnt see any 1970 arctic cat panther 634 hirth with montana pipes did you. my freind had one about 25 or 30 years ago it would have sounded good with all of those loud and insane machines there. that machine was clocked at sacandaga lake in the late 1970s here in ny doing 96 mph. i cant imagine with that cleated track and those insane pipes loud as hell. probably like trying to slow a train down. you got snow over in wisconsin. over my way here in the middle of ny it melted down hopefully theirs more on the horizon every were soon. have a good christmas.
@nuttersspeedshop quick question, i just seen a post on polaris wedge and polaris triples and someone was asking about how to get primary clutch off when clutch puller wasn't cutting it, and there was a bunch of people saying don't use an impact gun on it because it will knock crank out of faze. I've always used a impact and just give the clutch a tap with a rubber mallet and it pops off. Just wondering what your opinion is on that theory.
Stand the engine on end, fill the clutch bolt hole with water. Wrap some teflon tape around a 3/4-16 bolt and screw it in at least an inch. Make sure there's no air. Put it outside when it is below freezing and let nature do the work. That is always my last resort and it works every time - if it's cold enough. Zero F or colder is best.
I gotta ask, you’ve been to alot of shows and seen alot of cool sleds, in all of your travels have you ran across any custom Kawasaki Triple engines? They were around 4 of them built in the 80s for/by Billy Gohr and my grandfather at Midwest Dyno, I’ve searched for years and i just cant seem to come up with anything
Thanks!
Thanks Jeff!!!!

Beautiful sleds! 1990 Rxl prototype, very few made. I love those sno-twisters.
They sure are cool!
Awesome video again Nutter I can't wait to hit my show circuit again this year here in North Dakota, I sure miss all the stories everyone has
The stories are the best part.
Clean the carbs guys 🍻🍻

That 82 indy 500 makes me drool...even has the bronze windshield🤤
Dr Mario came up with some of those bronze ws NOS a few years ago. They weren't cheap!
Thanks for the tour of the show. I saw that Wisconsin engine model T contraption cruising around at ERX back in 2013!
A lot of awesome vintage sleds!! Brings back a lot of memories!! Thanks for the GREAT videos!! Keep em coming!!
I'm glad you enjoyed it!

Another great video just love how you show these sleds at all these shows thanks for bringing us along with you
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks Kevin!

Did you see the video where we went to John's place to see his collection?
@@nuttersspeedshop No I didn't see that one I will have to find it thanks, I do have to reach out to him and get some info on the motor
Looks like two jet ski Halls put together.
No one came up with anything else yet, so it must be.
And everyone’s children rode together too , neighborhood children , all different ages , like a Team ! Everybody knew everybody back then ,
Still have a Panther 440 in mint condition up in Grandpa’s garage, always dropped a cylinder, bought at the Dodge dealer new, needs a different ignition system, they never got it to run good
Suicidal guy next to the megaphone 😂😂😂😂 accurate
Love the old sleds.
Me too!
Looks like a great show.
It was a fun one!
29:05 looks like 2 fiberglass boat bottoms bolted together

The wildcat with the pit crew in the loud pipe contest. Turned out to be a broken ignition switch maybe next year.
Good to hear it was simple. See you next year!
You can obviously see that AMF used the same designers of their bowling ball returns for their snowmobile program in '66!
Now that you mention it, I see the resemblance!

Those are cool sleds. I see them at shows from time to time. If you didn't see one in this video it would be because there were none there.
That Sabre definitely had to be related to Northway.The handlebar grips were another giveaway.
You are absolutely right.
Says right in the reading material

@nuttersspeedshop yes, but would using a impact on the clutch bolt or clutch puller even knock a crank out of phase?
