Rupp Was Featured Sled For Waconia In
January, 2011!
This event was absolutely amazing as Rupp
was the featured sled for the MVSS (Midwest Vintage Snowmobile Shows)
Waconia Ride In. The dates of the event were Jaunuary 29th and 30th. Some
of the events included an 11 mile vintage ride featuring over 600 unique
vintage sleds, a swap meet & radar run, a banquet on Saturday night
as well as drag and oval racing. I got the opportunity to meet Gene Bloom
as well as several great Rupp legends. In addition, I was able to pick
up a sweet 1971 Rupp Magnum owned and raced by the one and only Jay Sperry.
What a magical and special weekend it was. This year's featured sled is
Chaparral.

Rupp Riders Page - Mitch Kintigh
Despite this busy Fall with all the great sled shows and events
and school starting, I finally got some time to slightly update the site.
I added one new Rupp Rider, Mitch Kintigh. Mitch's collection includes
a variety of Rupps including a 1971 Rupp Magnum 440cc, a Rupp 44 Sprint,
and a 1973 Rupp Nitro.

Sleds For Sale Pages
I've made some minor changes to the Sleds For Sale Pages, including
the Rupps For Sale page. A couple of sleds have recently sold and I've
added a few Rupp motocycles that you can ride today! You can access the
Rupp sleds for sale by clicking on the picture. You can check out the

Updated Restoration Help Page!
I've added some new features to the Restoration
Help page. First, I have categorized the page into three sections:
Vintage Snowmobile Site, Restoration Services & Goods, and Vintage
Snowmobile Restorations. This way, a person looking for restoration help
can locate other vintage collector sources, find businesses, and see what
others have done with their sleds. This week, I added information from
Cannon Classic Sleds, makers of reproduction windshields
and traders of vintage sleds and parts. To check out the changes, click
