Back in the 70's Snowjet, Rupp, and Arctic Cat were the big names in Luverne where I grew up. There were also some Chapparal's around too.

Where I grew up by Spring Valley, locally we had Rupp, Skidoo, Artic Cat & Motoski dealers & of course John Deere a little later on. It's a little known fact that the building where my office is housed presently is where Herters snowmobiles were once manufactured.
-
And Scorpions were around for awhile too. Herter's was great!

Welp....if nobody wants this for FREE......it goes on Facebook next....

Use it for a lawn ornament. :happy1: :rotflmao:

It's free...if none of the MNO family wants it...it goes to a vintage snowmobile group.

another update on HD's sled.. I called the Les, the fellow with the sled and museum, and told hin HD would like to see when it's cleaned up and running.. well he said he'd do one better, when it's running this winter and they have a vintage run or show HD can come there drive it!!! I told HD and he likes the idea!!! I think that's really cool.. I'll be going over there myself at the end of this month, Linda's twin boys,32 years old, are motor heads they would like to see the museum so I made an appointment to go there!! and then go over to gun shop right down the road from there!! :happy1:

Back in the late 60s early 70s I raced Scorpions for my dad who was a dealer at that time. If I remember correctly Pinz was a racer for the Scorpion factory team. I could be wrong as this was a long time ago but I raced against the factory team a number of times and that name sure seems familiar. Sure was a fun time doing that. The good old days. :happy1:
