1979 John Deere Spitfire

What was your intended objective when you started the build?

A gift for my son, he is a big John deere fan.

What motivated you to start your project?

I allways liked the Kohler free air John deere sleds.

What was the most unique and creative thing you did to the sled?

Full stock, but the ignition parts are allmost impossible to find. So I am building an ignition with the help of some online friends.

What are you most proud of?

Rebuilding a 43 year old piece of sled history.

What do other people say about your snowmobile?

Good luck!
