Classicgas Posted September 15, 2018 Posted September 15, 2018 This little gem is included in Revell's 80 Jeep Honcho kit. The kit has generic markings for it that match the truck. After doing research I found out it was a 79 Arctic Cat El Tigre. I collaborated with Speedway Decals and you see the result here.
Hmann68 Posted September 15, 2018 Posted September 15, 2018 I can smell the 2 stroke exhaust just looking at it!
Can-Con Posted September 15, 2018 Posted September 15, 2018 Looks just right Lee, Skidoo safe and remember your trail pass!
TooOld Posted September 15, 2018 Posted September 15, 2018 Never thought I'd say this about a snowmobile but . . . that's freakin' awesome !
Classicgas Posted September 15, 2018 Author Posted September 15, 2018 Thanks guys. It's possible speedway may consider selling these decals.
Belugawrx Posted September 15, 2018 Posted September 15, 2018 (edited) Nice job on sled!! I had one like that,a Yamaha tho,..a 400 2up we call em up here in the North lol That bar on the back is your reverse pedal lol Edited September 15, 2018 by Belugawrx
DPNM Posted September 15, 2018 Posted September 15, 2018 Nice build on this Lee. I've got a couple needing restored somewhere around here.
Classicgas Posted September 16, 2018 Author Posted September 16, 2018 Thanks. Maybe send Speedway a message that you want them lol.
mikemodeler Posted September 16, 2018 Posted September 16, 2018 Those things were brutal to ride compared to the sleds of today! Nice job on that Lee, sure would be nice to see some decals for that sled.
Classicgas Posted September 16, 2018 Author Posted September 16, 2018 Thanks Mike. Yeah, but they were the bomb back then.
peteski Posted September 19, 2018 Posted September 19, 2018 Very nice! Were the decals printed on clear decal film, or on white film with printed black background?
Classicgas Posted September 19, 2018 Author Posted September 19, 2018 Clear film. Speedway prints white. Thanks!
John Verkerk Posted January 10, 2019 Posted January 10, 2019 Very well done!!! the decals take it to another level.
Atmobil Posted January 13, 2019 Posted January 13, 2019 Wow, you did a really great job on this one. I got the original Ice Patrol kit on my shelf (Chevy pickup) and that one has the correct decals but I never thought it could end up this good. I must build mine some day too.
Chuck Most Posted January 15, 2019 Posted January 15, 2019 Nice! I do hope they'll sell the sheet for it. I believe the graphic scheme changed little (if at all) between '77 and '79.
Classicgas Posted January 15, 2019 Author Posted January 15, 2019 Best thing is to send them a note letting them know you are interested. He hasn't updated his site for some time, he does this on the side.
Mike C Posted January 15, 2019 Posted January 15, 2019 Looks pretty good. I have one of those that I haven't built yet. A guy from work commissioned me to build the Jeep Honcho for him because he has a 1:1 Jeep just like the kit. He told me I could keep the snowmobile. That's how I got it.
