i've got a line on a few late 90's venture 500 2 ups neither one runs but i can get them for about $100-
i figure the engines need rebuilt and everything gone thru shouldn't be a real issue i can do most of the work myself except having the cranks gone thru. the bodys are in real good condition?
so has anyone mod'd a venture 500 into a mountain sled? i'm thinking 151x2 tracks, gearing, clutching etc? i'd think they'd get around alright?
what are they worth if i try and resale once they're running in stock form and is there even a market for them?

sure, do it. but you might as well drop a set of 600 cylinders on the 500 to make them have some more power, esp for a long track with bigger paddles.
These are LC 500 ventures, and not FC ones right?
IIRC, there is a guy witha FC venture that made his into a mountain sled.
