Here is a pic of the sled i purchased last week. The guy i bought from didn't know what year it was but i found out it is a 1993.

I've had to do a lot of cosmetic work to it and it is now looking pretty good. So far i have replaced the wood under the seat and temporarily using black duct tape to cover the rips, cleaned the engine compartment, painted the console with krylon fusion paint and i'm looking for new bars as well as installing handwarmers.

Here is a pic from when it was for sale. I'll post a pic of the finished product when i can.

That looks sweet. I'm just doing a little work on it right now so that she can ride right away. I plan on doing a lot of restoration this summer and making it look really good.

Great pickup. I think Bravos are the best kids sled on the market. I suggest putting a set of plastic ski skins on it for floatation. They can go through crazy deep snow when the front can float and they will last forever.

Great first sled; these can actually be riden on trails, where as the 120's shouldn't be. Easy to work on and a lot of fun. I had one when younger and my kids just outgrew theirs a few years ago.

Your kids will nominate you for Dad of the year!
