I bought this sled last spring because I wanted the motor out of it for my IQR. I figured I would part the rest out. When I picked up the sled I was told it belonged to Keith Curtis (King of Kings and current Hill Climb World Champ) but I honestly figured it was just bull to try to help move it. Well I got the title in the mail and it was his sled and I am told it was his race sled before big time Polaris sponsorship. Now I have grown a coincenience and wonder if I can dismantle it. I know obviously he did not win it all on this sled but hey I have never had a snowmobile owned by a famous guy. What the heck is everyones opinion on what I should do with it now? Pics of the sled are on my profile. I will post some on this if I can find them on my home computer.

You said "formerly" owned by Keith Curtis, so you own it now. I would start by taking off the pipes . I don't see it as being anything special just because a hillclimber used to ride it before he was sponsored by Polaris. Tear the motor out.

Take some sentimental pictures, and then if you can make something better out of it GUT IT.

I tore into Andrew Johnstad's old sled (now mine) without looking back. It was a semi-pro open title winner. Does anybody want his seat cover as memorilbilia? My name isn't Andrew Johnstad so it doesn't do me much good!!

LMAO !!!!

I wonder how a vision of Christ eroded into the tunnel or onto the track would go with the media???

Maybe do a Craiglist or some other sites to sell for free. If you get somebody willing to pay up then make the deal only if you get a better deal and can find a better deal with the sled gone and cash in hand.
