Other Old School new toy.......

[special fx]

Just picked up an amazing 1976 400 ski. It's completely original and unmolested....it even has the stock ride tray matt (no wear) and every little graphic/sticker from the factory. The throttle/choke/steering cables even have the factory grease on them....too cool!

Don't know what the hell I'll do with it just yet, but it was too cherry to not snag!

Only spent 15 mins messin' with it, but I dropped a battery in it and it cranks over perfect. It didn't fire but it probably has 34 year old fuel in it!

PS: 1976 is the first year I ever rode a Jetski, so sentimental value too......

Yup! Looks like it was never used. Only thing I can see that it needs is a pole bracket. Someone broke it where the strap goes in to hold the pole up.

Goes nicely with the 900!
