I picked up this former "ice fishing special", out of Michigan, last year...just after picking up another Sprint 29 locally (after having looked for one for years!!). Neither sled was good enough to really "restore", but this one had potential to be "refreshed" into a pretty nice rider. Pics below are of the sled as it sat in its former owner's garage, and of it 95% done in my driveway!
