I would be interested to hear your experiences.

You don't need to turn....it has reverse.



These are work horses, not sport machines.

I have plans to give the machine a good overhaul this summer. I am looking for any NOS parts that anyone who buys of Gov surplus might have laying around. I have found a new cab and belly pan. There is so much snow here I don't dare take it in my backyard as we have 4 ft of unpacked snow. I will give some updates when I get the 503 Rotax rebuilt.

The reason I went for the Alpine is because it is a work horse like Rob said. Not a speed demon but has 2 tracks and thats what a Tanker like mysef gets
excited about.

I will have to see if anyone has any data on these machines. Cab has 00006 scratched into it. That would be the last 5 orf the serial number. The deck is a 1974 with everything else 1985 Military White.

More to follow
