Hey all,
I thought I would post this here. My buddy has a very nice '83 Blizzard 9700 on eBay. From what I understand, they are very rare. I have not been able to find another for sale anywhere. Anyone looking for one, search auction number 280072845647.

Thanks in adavance,
The goatman.

At $1500, your friend will be keeping it for a long time. Just my opinion.

You are obviously not familiar with the sled. In 1983, nothing off the showroom floor could touch it. 100+mph out of the box. Many were used as lake racers. Many were wrecked. The amount that are left over... well, good luck finding one. The Blizzard 9700 is a very strong piece of Ski-Doo history. Look into it. Speak with a Ski-Doo dealer. You will be amazed at the stories you will hear.

Its a sharp sled. But for $1500, you can get more out of a newer snowmobile.

If it was mint, you may get 1500 from a collector or such. I do understand the history behind this sled and I don't doubt at all that it is a nice piece of machinery. If I offended you, I appologize, was not my intention. It is merely my opinion that I would be surprised if it brought that much. I have been surprised before.
