Vintage Snowmobile Show - Blacksmith Lounge Hugo Minnesota 

I had a 1974 golden ghost Johnson, my brother has it now in immaculate condition in original condition. No cracks and nothing looking for a gasket for it God bless you and your family. God bless the world it’s all just get along.

Очень приятно видеть технику с которой брали основу )))!!!!!👍

I love the old machines and Grew up with them, there use to be so many of them,

You done a excellent job of showing all the sleds. Good work my Rupp friend!!!!

Been down in Texas for 40 years, but back in the [Iowa] day. My family had a Scorpion Range Whip and a AC Panther. I believe the snow line has moved north like Minn or Wiscy. The lakes don`t freeze over like they use too. Someday snowbirds will just head to the south side of I-80 to over winter LOL.

Had a 76 Scorpion sting 440.sweet machine. first 440 , i had.miss that machine.

I used to have the old Rupp and Evinrude old 60s Ski-Doo this was in the 80s they were old then as I got a little bit older I had a Yamaha Enticer when I never had a 440 Exciter SRX which was water cooled at the time it was Hi-Tech badass machine

Nice !! That 1978 440 was a Exciter. Not an enticer. I had one. Great memories and sled !!! Beat 6000 eltigres. Polaris. John Deeres. Ski Doos. Unbeatable really. Twin single card. Fan cooled.

👍👍😎✌️🤟

Thanks

I love that johnson skihorse

love the 74 jd 400!

Some serious vintage snowmobile porn in this video. I have seen every one of these glorious golden-age sleds operating back-in-the-day, and I have driven/ridden most of them. The Johnson/Evinrude sleds are very cool to me as they were built at the Outboard Marine plant where I lived in Canada. At around 24:26 I see a '71 Ski-Doo Olympique (all yellow hood). It brought a few tears to my eyes as that machine was the one my father had, what wonderful times those were. I recall the '71 Olympique had a fixed seat-back with a spring-loaded compartment large enough for a small tool kit and a one gallon gas can. Three kids (sometimes three larger kids) could ride on that bad boy at the same time and it would still tow a wooden toboggan. It's missing the 335 emblem on the cowling. I used that metal bar fixed at the front to pull it out of many a snowdrift. Thank you for the video Mr. Mundo.

I used to ride those old Ski-Doos like that when I was a kid in the 80s I remember the old egg-shaped hoods in the pull the lever to flip out the headlights in the black Carbon on my snowmobile suit they were old then. There was the old Yamaha Sno jet we had an old Rupp. Those old sleds are very familiar to me even the Arctic Cat Krueger but this was back in the 80s when the Yamaha exciters the SRX was in the market we probably had a couple of the Scorpions they were old by the time I got my hands on them as a kid remember the egg shape hoods but Yamaha was making some pretty nice sleds and I eventually got.350 Enticer my neighbor who was older got his hands on Yamaha SRX and 440 Exciter

I experienced a lot of those old sleds as a young kid like the old Chaparral the Rupp snow jet the Evinrude they were old to me and I was born in 1976 and this was in the 80s what does old slides for still running back then I remember them because I used to ride them in northern Michigan

Very hard to choose.... the Kawasaki 550 interceptor would be one ...

I had more than a few of the old sled. I got back in to sled s again picking up 1988.340 jag.

Yup yup you betcha! Yeah you betcha ya ya

I remember those machines it's what they look like back in the 80s when I was a kid if I remember the Arctic Cat Panther we had one it was always Yamaha Yamaha Yamaha

I live in st paul minnesota and so far only snowed 2 inches once this year, im heated

Growing up my bro had a sm292f Yamaha, a 340 spitfire John Deere, a 440 exciter, and my favorite a twin carb twin pipe moto ski super Sonic.

Great job on this! You took your time and held the camera steady!! I think that machine you couldn't identify is a Polaris "Colt" but that's just a guess. I grew up in Anchorage, Alaska '64-'74 and we were a Polaris family. Our first snowmachine was a Colt like that. We also had one of those early Ski Doo Olympics with the engine and carburetor opening right up against the rider. Horrible design, because the carburetor would suck your snow suit into the intake opening, and one minute you'd be riding along, and the next minute the engine would start to die for no reason, and of course be flooding out when it did finally die.....and then the machine was very difficult to restart. We got rid of the Ski Doo and the old colt, got a more modern Colt (the one with twin headlights) and of course my dad was a prolific racer on eveything TX and Startfire, and even the Indy's. He wore those machines like a glove, and our house was packed full of his trophies.

We had some kind of wide track skidoo but I acquired a little blue Yamaha Enticer and to me it was pretty fast and that was it

My first sled was a Yamaha 340 and then a 440

i used to own a speedway

79 Polaris 340 TXL

The black "Boondock Bomber" is not a '69. Add 3 or 5 years

Dude , .... . it's Not Bom ba deer ! It's "Bom bar deeyay" . It's the inventors surname of the first snow mobile

Scorpion its own company ? I like rare stuff

The Arctic Cats were always cool looking but we can never get them to run it's a Kawasaki product I always like damn but nobody ever wanted to work on them I was always told they were junk and not worth it but I always thought they looked really cool

doubt that alpine is a 69 looks like a 80s one maybe a 83

Omg we had an exact same model as this black Scorpion. Not reliable at all.

Some bring back memories, or have seen them, guy were knew had one when I was a kid for first ride, think it was a johnson, state park had some next, then my dad bought a yellow starcraft we rode around the fields, boogie wheels and center shafts bent constantly, he made harder shafts, kept putting bearings in and greased them with a needle,lasted longer, then local Yamaha dealer that raced got in 2 SS 433s with expansion chambers and it was fast. No mixing gas, we raced everyone and they couldnt keep up, went up into Michigan and thise 775 TNTs and triple cyclinder chapperals were supposed to be fast, found a abandon airport, a guy at gas station never seen a Yamaha yet and we told him only problem with it it beats everything that races it!! He closed store and we went to the strip! So we lined up and he have me a head start to show us how fast his TNT was, he got mopped by 10 lengths, started straight up 3 times and got mopped by 6 to 7 lengths. Then Chappelle tried he got beat by. 15 lengths, they left with twil between there legs! Had a guy that put a 900 Kawasaki motor in a articat and he couldnt beat us. About 5 years more machine came out and a green skirol beat me. Day later it blew! So changed piston and Finnished vacation. Motor got bored 60 over with Cisco pistons, the track got changed to a fastrack, lightweight twin drive. It would peel ice and wheelie for 100 feet. I was going over open water in channels over 100 feet long, about 80 mph. Hitting speeds over 120. And my dad sold it afraid we would get hurt! He bought a GP 433 and it was ok but not fast like the SS, rode a few more years then just didnt ride anymore, less snow and time was hard to come by. Was around all those machines, from late 60s to the 70s. That SS with 2 pipes out the right side had the best sound. When, running roads and pines up north. Was my favorite of all.
