When I told my wife I was going to help a buddy fix up his rental unit she had not problems with it.... :beer

But... when he showed up yesterday to pay me, with 2 vintage 72 Polaris Colt 295's she was not as impressed with my kind heart!! They are 1 year older then she is, but they are sweet! One is mint, the other is well... it runs and the parts machine is a parts machine. :w00t:

It also came with a cool sled to toe behind for ice fishing made in the same era.... I will post pics this week.

Now my 85 200S does not seem as old as it did before!!

They are great powder sleds, they will go anywhere. I have a 1973 polaris colt 250 with a 1982 yamaha 250 Bravo motor in it.
