The girls finally got a pontoon Tucker! It’s a 1980 543A serial #3803561 this cat was in red lodge Montana. When Clyde gets back we know the history on it. Please feel free to express opinion or input for this cat.

Thanks, it’s a lot newer than we originally wanted but it will be a great first Tucker for the girls to learn on!

I think you have the best of both worlds here. That cab is way more roomy with smooth pontoons underneath.
Are the pontoons and tracks period to the machine and what’s the power plant?

Thank you, the sedan model is very nice because the two girls have plenty of room with all their gear!
As far as I know the pontoons are original to the cat. It has the 318 Chrysler engine in it.

Nice start to the addiction!
Most of that Cab period had rubber tracks by then.
My 73 1443 was built as a 443 pontoon but converted for whatever reason to rubber before it came east.
Keep the details coming. Love the next gen of youth coming up on here. 9/13 in my camp and plenty older younger on here.
Offseason gets slow on the forums with other hobbies but great community year round!

Thanks, the girls are 8 & 10 and have big plans!
I emailed Clyde to get the build sheet and where the cat went when it left the factory. I was told it was originally sent to Utah so that would be awesome if we brought it back to its original state!
We will try to keep everyone updated!
