76 liquifire track? Where???

I'm about to start restoring my 1976 John deere liquifire. I'm trying to hunt down parts for the resto. Most of what I can't find I can make but the only thing I can't make or find is the track. Does anyone know where I can find a track? A new one would be great but I would settle for a good used one. I've looked at quite a few places online but no luck. About a year or two ago Dennis Kirk was selling new kimpex tracks for that sled but not anymore.

Alssnowmobile has tons of stuff and of course eBay is a good source for NOS and used vintage parts. My 80 panther was pieced together from these to places! Good luck, should be a cool project! Post pictures!

I checked online at al's with no luck but I should call them and ask. No luck on ebay. Im gonna check out jdsleds.com and see what I can find. I thought about maybe waiting for the next swap meet. Thanks everyone and keep your eyes out. I would consider a finders reward!

The easist is to swap out the suspension and upgrade the whole thing!

But the point of a restoration is to be as accurate as possible.

Try this place. Hi-Performance Engineering, if there are none here, we have snowmobile junk yards up here in Michigan that sell new and good used tracks and will ship to ur door. Let me know if you want some links.
