1969 Scorpion. 299 Sachs with a tuned pipe. That was an awesome machine. Second and last sled owned was a 440 Rupp. That also was an awesome machine. Oh ya, boogies and cheezie little springs. That was quite the suspension.

Dad had 2 1969/ 70 Arlberg's!!! When you were 12 that thing was great!! Since then step dad burnt them, would like one for sentimental reasons, so if anyone knows where there is one running or not let me know (cheap).

First sled I drove was a 1965 Snow Cruiser(in 1967) which the people next door owned. My dad bought us a 1965 Ski-Doo the following year. Many years later we had and Elan and a 340 Whirlwind Massey....It was all good.
