That is is nice sled. Have you had it awhile or just find it? How about the Ski Boose? Looks to be complete except for the windshield. Mark I or Mark II?
When I was working for the Forest Service about 1971 the District had two 399 "Double Hogs", 68s or 69s I think. Those things were bullit proof. We probably put as many miles on dry dirt as we did on snow getting to work projects in the spring time. Pulled fold-a-sleds full of tree marking paint the whole time too. When you go over a jump with one of those you know you got some weight up in the air!

Those things were awesome. Looks like a bit of TLC and she'll be mint.

When I was a kid, our first sled was a 1970 640 Alpine er. Many memories were made with that machine both during work and in play. It proved very valuable for ice fishing, getting firewood, and even giving the truck a tug when it got stuck. I now have this machine stored out in the barn and I think that maybe its time to bring it out and give it some TLC as well.
