I posted this on the vintage forum, but it appears there isn't much traffic. I'm hoping someone here can let me know if I'm about to make a bad or good deal. I have found a 1974 GPX 338 in original unrestored condition that looks like it's only a year old. outside of two tiny dings in bumper and a very small crack in hood on the right outside edge I haven't seen anything else. Belly pan is like new as is the tunnel. I'm giving $2500 for it. The sled has sentimental value, as I used to own one in 74. I raced my sleds and sold them after a year to get a new race sled. The reason this model is important to me is because I had my best year of racing with one. Finished 5th at the mi state championships. beat a lot of thunder chickens. So, am I getting a "good" deal or am I letting sentiment get in the way?
getting new old sled
- Thread starter vmaxcrazy
- Start date
Seems like a lot of cash for something that old.. how many miles are on it? and can you post any pictures?
Yes, it is a fair amount for an old sled. The pluses are it's local (no long distance to travel to pick up) and, I've seen people asking as much as $3500 for one. Sled does not have a speedo, so no way to know actual millage. Sled is extremely straight, doesn't really show it's age.
Toss up a few pictures.
Very nice!! Clean.

I really like the idea of buying a sled. I would really like to pick something up for myself. I'm just going to Alaska this winter.

Those were great waterskippers back in the day along with the 76. Ski doo rvhow were the yammy free airs were they fairly reliable.
