Are you a Dead Sled Wrencher? Then you've come to the right 
place!

The 2008 NHSMA show has come and gone. I wait for it every year and it seems like its gone in an instant. The TX-L ran great for the snow, my Tigre is STILL in the shop and the '70 Ski-Doo ran like garbage. I'm pretty sure that sled has water in the gas, it'd idle fine but when you got on the throttle it'd quit. On the way back to the truck things got alot better... Its snowing now so in a little bit I'm going to head out and put some drygas in and run the snot out of it, hopefully that'll clear things out.

I'm blogging now, you can read the Dead Sled Wrencher Blog at Blogspot as far as I know I'm the only vintage snowmobile blogger. 

Luck is with me, the Dodge does not need any major repairs right now. Woo hoo! For awhile there we were without any vehicles... So no major push begging for cash. However at the bottom of this page you'll find 2 new links. 1 is from my ISP where if you needed web hosting anyway you could get me some cash and the other is if you'd like to make a donation to the cause. All casho is appreciated.

When your wife says snowmobiles are only toys show her this picture.

Thats my 1970 Ski-Doo 12/3 pulling the firewood sled. I need to rework the sled some, the 12/3 can haul that weight no problem... 

I've pretty much proven that I did not kill the CDI on the '86 Panther. I don't know why it won't run but its got spark. Saturday I just ran out of steam. Before I get much farther on that the Tigre needs carb work. Randy had new carb intake boots, its so nice to work on a sled where parts aren't all really odd and hard to get.

If you haven't been over recently take a look at the New Hampshire Snowmobile Museuem their Model T snowmobile resto is moving right along.

I think this is a great thing. Watch my NHSMA 2006 Video and you can see a similar Model T thats all decked out. Then head over to NHSMA'S Model T Restoration page and make a donation if you're able.

I'd like to know what you think about these pages give me a shout with your thoughts.

-Curt
