I have wanted one ever since I got my doors blown off at a drag race I was on a 97 zx600r ninja He was stock. I want to put that engine in a modern frame. vinsrj...I love the GN, Is it original. I put a Buick 3.8 T in a pontiac le mans. wow what a ride! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VinsRJ 721 #30 Posted November 1, 2010 vinsrj...I love the GN, Is it original. I put a Buick 3.8 T in a pontiac le mans. wow what a ride! I bought the GN from the original owner about 10 years ago, who used it as daily transportation from 87-2000. Over the years I have installed all of the classic bolt ons, Kenne-Bell ram air, ATR 3" SS exhaust, bigger intercooler, chip..... its got 116K on the clock, the engine has never been apart and still has the Original Turbo from 1987. Pulls like a Mad Man. Its never been repainted (could use a re-paint) and I drive it...... thats why I bought it :thumbs: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

whfan74 2,015 #39 Posted November 4, 2010 We added a few more signs this week........put up a couple more Kohler signs, Tecumseh sign, Stihl sign, and some other odds and ends. Also picked this up at the local auction for $30. It will come in handy to store more of our manuals and a few parts. Have all of the hooks for the slotted back in a box still. Still deciding what we want to hang up there. As you can see many of the manuals are finding their new home. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The one in the last photo next to the car is another 312 and will be my plow tractor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hoppy 0 #43 Posted November 17, 2010 Here is where i get my work done! Story behind this space...........it was once a Moto-ski dealership and then a skidoo, susuki, kawasaki dealership. It was all built/owned by my wifes passed grandfather. R.I.P. Pops.If any of you know Enfield Motor Sports In Enfield, CT. Pops sold the dealership to the guy that opened Enfield Motor Sports. As you can see im into vintage sleds and the "newest" one is the John Deee shown in one of the pictures. Also shown is my 856 and some other toys. plenty of space now that we have it cleared out for the winter. in the summer it can get busy with tractors, mowers, etc. since we have the trucking company here and the horse farm there is always stuff floating around and it often ends up in here. right now were are pretty clear. i keep all my tools in the space shown. i dont like to leave to much laying around. as i said shop is attached to a functining family owned trucking business. thankfully the family has fully allowed me to do my thing. Im also Mr. fix it around here with all the mowers, etc. Its a win win! Here are some pictures. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mavfreak 11 #44 Posted November 17, 2010 Hoppy whats under all those covers? Any Blizzards? I had one and loved it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hoppy 0 #45 Posted November 17, 2010 mav..........nothing i would consider super rare. there are two 2000 Skidoos Formula S's, a '71 moto ski zephyr, a '80 Mirage, 3 Nuviks, a '81 skidoo citation. not pictured are a '68 skiroule 300, '76 moto ski futura 440 and the rarest sled a '64 Fox Trac. Like i said none of these are what i would consider rare or collectable but they keep me busy and i like them all. if we have a winter like last i might just get rid of them all as if we cant ride then there is no need. Fun hobby but not so fun when we get no snow. If i sold the sleds id probably pickup a few more horses. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mr.pipes 4 #49 Posted November 18, 2010 Wow Glenn, your horses look great. To say I'm a bit jealous would be quite an understatement. Hopefully I can get my maroon stripes looking as nice as yours someday. Thanks for covering up the cars so we don't feel so bad. But I can just imagine how good they must look from what I have seen of your tractors. Very nice collection. Have you done work to all of the machines or are some original? Once again, very nice! I love the look of a clean maroon stripe. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
