I had grand plans of completing two Rupp projects by the end of the Summer, but life has gotten in the way...so much so that I may not even get one finished!! Hopeful that this will be ready for the snow, pretty well ready for re-assembly...Just rebuilding to be a good rider... Afraid this one won't get done until next Summer, unless I somehow create enough room in the garage to work on it in the Winter!

Thanks, Dan...was all in pieces when I got it, with a ripped track, so it's just a clean, rebuild, shine up and ride!! Looks better from five feet!

Looks and sounds good . I have a chassis but some day I may put twin kohler in it or skidoo F/A if I live long enough ! I like to put chrome color paint on skis over the black !!

I gotta ask.Was this one from the midhurst area? I called on one during the winter and was the second call.It was in pieces.The sticker under the headlight is the same as the kijiji pics I have.Looks real good! Kerry

This is the one...nice to be at the front of the line for a change LOL! It was a jigsaw puzzle for sure, but everything was pretty well there...had to add a few items from my parts stash to complete it, but pretty happy with the result!

Thanks, Rick, it'll be a nice rider this Winter (I enjoy trail riding my other '76 Sport more than any of my other oldies!)...maybe the Wife and I can get out for some vintage riding on the twin '76 Sports...not sure if she'll like it better than her REV, though!!

Finished my last Summer Rupp project at the end of August , then finished the "refresh" on my '82 JD Trailfire (to generate funds!) , and this week finished stripping a '69 GT chassis that will be a donor for my first '69 GTX 295 (with the bad chassis) ...now getting my daughter's Indy Lite ready to hit the trails this Winter!
