Here it is after putting brand new decals on it. My dad and I were up till 1AM getting the two sleds ready for a good days riding.
Thats my Grandma looking out the window. The 340 originally was hers, boy was she surprised to see it looking brand new.

Thats about 60 MPH down the lake. Towards the end of the day, my dad and I were racing on the sleugh. I was winning and going about 60MPH, when I heard a giant klunking noise. I stopped as fast as I could. I checked around, and couldn't find anything, then this black oil(was clear when put in) was dripping out of the left side. Anyways, the chain broke and piled up in the bottom and broke the chain case apart. Now I have to go find some more parts.
Here is the 340 and 440 together. This is what made my grandpa really happy, having two matching Sno*Jets!
Me, the happy owner of this marvelous machine.
I finally finished the hood!!
I am still working on the hood but am almost ready to paint it.
After all the work on the old suspension I got a new one. Thanks to Barry Knoblach. He has tons of parts, email me for his #.
The repainted Yamaha 440.
My dad working on the engine.
Most of the parts were repainted.
So we made a new piece.
As you can see we had a little problem, a piece of the hood was missing.
Had to do alot of fiberglass work.
It sure gets messy in the garage quickly.
After an afternoon of hard work I am finished.
Here is the Sno*Jet just waiting for me to take it apart.
