I would have thought that Nome, Ak would be one of the last places on earth for vandals.... What a shame to spray paint on such a nice machine and especially a Kristi relative! :wow: I am suprised that it was not stored in a secure building. Is it a diesel model?

your right not as bad here as some of the villages you get out in surrounding villages you don't want to leave tempered glass unttended. the construction company's band plywood over the glass so its there the next spring. supposedly 420 is some dope smoking code must have come about as dope legalization came about here in ak.

I hate to bring it up but...... a Kristi would have pulled the Bv206 up the small incline on the first try with the superior traction of the hickory grousers. :yum:

Glad to see the good humor on both sides of the Kristi/Krusty debate :big grin:

And yea, those hickory grousers, clearly a development that was ahead of its time. Undeniably superior traction. Probably even got a U.S. Patent pending on the tree. :whistling:

Nice work don.

I am thinking that timing is spot on.

Governor seems right on the spot as well.

I love the extended passenger cabin.. How do you get heat to the rear cabins?

just think Mike if you had a krusty or bv206 around, you too could have an extra snow condo. anyway got the engine pulled yesterday, and separated the transmission waiting on a torque converter to come in before installing the new good used transmission than re installing the power pack. any one who thinks finding parts for an old snow trac or Thiokol is hard, they haven't tried looking for bv 206 crap I bet Kristi parte are easier to come by and a lot less expensive. every one thinks because these are newer they are going to have more parts available, not. I heard horror stories of five hundred dollar each lower radiator hoses plus a year and half wait for a production run. I said it once and I will say it again you could not pay me to take one of these to use how ever I might consider using one to part out.
