Nice work Mark. I think you have more time than I have. lol

I really like the vintage photo, looks like there is another 592 to the left and then the sled to very far left in the background has me really curious, can't figure out what it is. Cool stuff.

    Yes, there is another 592 to the far left. And I don't know what that other sled is either-lol

    lol. Its another Doo! Judging by the windy on the other doos that is. Its the right arm of the daddler rider that makes it look like it might be something else. It was bugging me and I had to come back and study the photo again.  ::)

    That's one of the coolest sleds I've ever seen Mark.  Great job buddy.  Can't wait to see it in person.

    Outstanding work that sled looks all business . Very nice attention to detail . One came to the nhsma show a couple years back . He showed up late and only displayed it for a couple hours I have pictures of it . The thing sounded like the hounds of he'll when he rode it in the park .

    Thats one of the top builds on here for uniqueness.  I would also love to hear it run.  Black and silver look SO SHARP!!!  And those pipes must be louder than all hell haha

    I am not a 'daddler fan but have to say that is the "COOLEST" 'daddler I ever saw and the attention to detail is second to none.

    Nice job...... ;)

    I just ran across this old posting again tonight and enjoyed reading the whole story again.  This era is maybe my favorite era of the Vintage Hobby and the era of when I first got the snowmobile bug big time with a 1968 Ski-doo Super Olympic and my friends 68 Polaris Colt.  Our local Ski-doo dealer at that time sold AMF also.  I sure don't remember any of these on his show floor.

    This sled is soooo very cool that I can't imagine anything turning heads more at a show than this.

    Is that exhaust what they came with?  I had the same engine in a 68 Polaris TX with factory straight pipes and it was a big time crowd pleaser with a very unique and special sound to it.  I would love to hear one of the AMF's.
