OK pics, here are the 2 lynx 292's we have. Bought the pair of them for 400 (we have a personal 200$ limit/sled). They have never really given us any problems. When we got them I really didn't realize the value of all the parts the guy keep loading in the back of my truck at the same time. He gave us piles of parts that we have used over and over. I bet I could have sold the parts on ebay for the 400 I spent, easily. We keep them though and use them to keep the old Arctic cats running.
Next is a cheetah 440 I bought last year, I got a pair of them for around 200 for both. I have the one running super and rode it a lot this winter. It really didn't take much, carb cleaning, crank seals, a little clutch work (still needs a little more). The other I am getting close to having it running, still have some spark issue, I hope I have it figured out, just need some time to wrench. Was going to just use one for a parts sled, but thought I would give them both a shot to get running.
The last pic is a 72 AC panther my oldest son bought for about 185 on ebay. Again carb cleaning, tank cleaning, new crank seals and it was running super. It is a 399 and I just love the sound of that engine. It will sit and idle all day and just take off, it runs sweet.
BTW you made your first step towards enjoying your future vintage sleds, no matter which you choose. That is joining this forum, it is really a super forum with a lot of great advice available. The moderators do a great job keeping it clean and making sure all the questions get answered. This forum has been so much help to me in getting and keeping these sleds running.
