TnTs4mE 01-27-2002, 03:21 PM The Elite's was made from 73 to 82 but there was a gap in there. * The easiest way to tell the era is the sled color. *From 73 to 75 were like the one shown were white and had a 440 F/C motor. *There was probelms with the earlier ones with vapor lock as the engine compartments were no well vented. *There was a gap in between. *The Elites came back in 78 with a yellow boday and black frame. *They also had a type 444 L/C motor. *In 81 they went to all black and had a type 464 L/C motor that also had oil injection. *
There is a strong following of faithful Elite owners and that is one reason why they are hard to find. *I myself have had the chance to get a couple, but for one reason or another never got one. *But one of these days. * I like the white ones, but would like the L/C motor. DanR 01-27-2002, 03:57 PM if i get one i sure hope its a liquide cooled. *must be pretty strong with a 464 in there and the doubble track ! Raider Rider 02-03-2002, 08:36 AM Check out www.alssnowmobile.com he had two of them for sale go to the classic section.Good luck skidplate 02-05-2002, 11:38 PM Saw one in the Canada Auto Trader, *Saskatchewan edition.Probably three weeks ago? TnTs4mE 02-06-2002, 08:13 AM Also has been a couple on ebay in recent months. DanR 02-06-2002, 08:36 PM all the one's i see for sale they are asking 2000$ i think thats way to much i would rather find one in bad shape and restore it! im not looking for a brand new one. Raider Rider 02-11-2002, 07:47 PM THere was one on ebay dont know the number punch in ski doo and you will find it TnTs4mE 02-18-2002, 09:17 AM 2k is about the going rate on them. *Parts for the elites are hard to find. *So the paying a few extra $$$$ for one in better condition might help out in the long run. | |
