You guys!!! Everyone like my comment to see if we can make this happen. Jeremy and 2vintage KZread channels both got these older panthers at the same time. Let’s get them to collaborate and do a race with these units!!

It's always a good day when there's a new video from Jeremy Rhydes!

Nice to have you back jeremy. We missed you.

So glad to see you back . Great little old sled to play with ..

My uncle had one of these old ones too. Not sure of same model/CCs but he loved it for over hill 'n dale on the fam's 200 acre farm/woods/sloughs. He even challenged me after I told him of my 600cc Polaris XLT in '95. ~ Something of the lower rev takeoff for swampin'. dunno of that myself. Before the Polaris was a hunert dollar old Cat from a pal as first sled. ~ Cleated track. yoiks! Dry snow on our small lake made many islands of snow twixt bare ice. ~ ... two up with the missus...how fun for a hunert bucks! Half mile out at other end of lake at 25/30mph I turned a bit sharp on ice...loop de loop we went. WEEEEE!...then hit a snow island sideways. We and sled dumped. ..the missus; oh my arm is broke, oh my leg is broke. pfft, she was fine...but what is that black chunka cheese out there in the dark? Oh cwap, it's the battery. (-: anyhoo, that cleated track of the day (perpendicular bars, not studs) worked ok fwd, but sideways on ice they're like skates.

Hey Jeremy im a fellow Vermonter and also had one of those vintage cats love it brings back great memories ty

Keep them coming Rhydes!

Nice find! Sounds like a good runner. Had one just like it about 37 years ago. Paid about $300 for it back then too. I guess they hold their value. lol. Let it snow!!!

Is Mike at 10 years? !! You have a chill ass Chanel bruh!

Nice! My uncle had one of those that he rode with me while on my 1971 Skiroule RT-500. Love to see these ole' sleds come back to life. Thanks for all the great videos. BTW. That seat is sweet. Bula

So glad to have a video again, keep them coming!!

That was my first snowmobile! Lol. I bought one used in early 80s. I worked on it more than I rode it! Lol. Mine was a 440

HI From Canada Jeremy! I grew up with the 70's cats...Grew up at a speedway got to race sleds around the track when there were no car races at like 10 yrs old.. the neighbor was the Arctic cat dealer and we would hang around the shop all the time. Now many years later I have a Ski Doo Irondog 800 Etec. Love sleds and everything about them. Love your channel too!

Can't wait to see that beast in the snow!

I loved both the snowmobile hunting videos

Jeremy, can you please do another “buying every old sled I see” vid. Last one was sick man 💪

I just discovered your channel and I'm lovin it up in Canada. I'm binge watching your vids to pick up mechanical know how. I'm trying to get a 95 Skidoo Formula SS running for my kids as a Christmas present and I have 3 weeks left. Following in your trouble shooting foot steps. Please keep making these videos and I love this vintage sled episode. You are awesome!

I love the way they look, and how simple they are. I'm excited to get this thing on the snow!

Now you get to enjoy the lost art of studding a cleated track. With only about 25 hp you won’t spin the track hard enough to slice a tunnel from a broken cleat. That’s really rare on a stock lo po Panther. Tops is about 45 mph. We sold these new when I was a boy.

When in need, a rope and the primary clutch make an excellent recoil...minus the "re" part 🤣😂

Glad to see you back brother! THESE ARE THE VIDS WE NEED !!!

I recently sold off the Last of my 63 Vintage Cats. Range from 1969 to 1981. Even a few that were still in Factory crates, (never opened).

Old sled's are still a blast

Glad that your back making videos!! Can't wait to see her rip

been enjoying this channel for awhile and have heard all about 'theres a sasquatch' in this video somewhere... but never knew what he looked like or what size or if it was a picture or an actual 'action figure' type deal. lol.... now i know. funny thing is, i dont do instagram. i wont spoil it with a time stamp. keep fixin sleds man you make me wanna do the same

I really like this channel! You are pretty dam entertaining! Getting excited for snow!! Keep them coming!

That's awesome jeremy good to see you back!!! Hows mike and Travis doin hope your all good👍

Missed you man!..glad you're back😎

Great video!! I have a 1971 Panther 303.

Hell of a deal for vintage in that condition

i have a 1991 panther body is totaled i have a old xcr 440 frame, with chaincase that i am going to put most of the panther into. its going to be alot of work. im going to bore out the arctic cat 440 to a 500 and then swap it. after that i will take the shocks off the front and use them hopefully on the xcr 440. then i will mod the rear whole suspension to fit the xcr. its going to be a BIG fun project. i will post all of it on my channel. the swapping onto the xrc frame wont happen until this summer because its under snow. i will post some of me tearing the panther down though.

Do not ever, change that seat cover LOL Also, really can’t wait for you to get the ZR800 going. Old Cats are my favorite

They are incredible.

We have a 73 panther 340 best article ever made

Sweet! I have a couple ski whizs with the same jlo. Those bolts for the recoil (dumb design lol) tend to come loose. I usually use a little smear of loctite. Also check for any air leaks... Those engines can't have any... or they will blow up unfortunately. Anyways great video. 👍

So hype for the season let's gooo 👌🤘😁

should get yourself a Pro Xr 800, had one 2 winters ago. Those sleds are fun as hell, maybe a bit hard to get a hold of one in the states tho, they are pretty rare.

clean sled for $300. I had a '74 I think it was. Never got to 100%, sometimes ran like a beast, other times it would kind of bog down. upgraded to a 78 motoski so I abandoned the cat but for style you cant beat the old cats. This was the mid 90's, wish I had kept some of the old sleds we used to buy cheap., getting harder to find. Good luck with the sled and the covid.

Dude I'm glad to see a new video

We always love a good rhydes vid

My first sled parents got me was 72 panther. I beat hell out of it for yrs only replaced belts. Finally retired it when rear cogs broke and couldn't find any

The cogs on these were probably made of cheese to be honest. I think that's why he didn't drive it in the video and when he revved it it didn't move.

We had one just like that, same hood and a JLO engine.

There's special metal clips for those style of pull starters

I grew up on them sleds man and glad to see that your getting into something that will last you. But if you still work at cad cut I got a lynks that you mite be interested in let me know. I got a brand new track if you need one for that 340

Love the videos 🔥

Its ilo, not jlo 🙂 An old German engine manufacturer and their motors are very common in old sleds but also mopeds and motorcycles, at least here in sweden👌 I really enjoy your videos and im stoked to see your upcoming content for this winter 🤘

Used to have a 1969 Polaris mustang. Man that thing was a tank.

You should get a snowhalk, they're fun and pretty cheap

Back again 🔥

I am so behind i watch all your videos, I finally seen the Sasquash 3.39 of the video. Dont know if that means anything lol

Picked up 79 Kitty Cat. Is there any chance you can give me insight into unsnapping the seat before I destroy it? Thx for the great content,,,

I have a 75 Panther, 440 cc. Same seat, different dash and hood. Will not run on 2 when wide open.

Gonna take that big trip to Maine this year?

Have, fun,,,,,

Opinions on the HCR artic cat 2009?

1985 Yamaha Excell 340

The jlo's are stout Lil engines!

That JLO rewind gives me PTSD....

339 time stamp found the grizzly Jeremy. I could be wrong but I'm thinking the last video it's been a while you're going to give something away if you found it?

@@JeremyRhydes keep up the great content dude ! 😉

No One who has or does work on gas powered engines says ridiculous things like "Don't put gas down the spark plug hole it'll damage it" Or something similar. They haven't got a clue as to what getting an old or difficult machine to first fire when cold or after sitting for years. Armchair mechanics. I will say of course it's not ideal and it's not measured etc but it's not going to cause big problems from doing it. What do they think a Primer is on those older sleds?? It literally a little rubber button that you push a few times for that very purpose! Old cars used to have little built in cups on them so you could prime them on first start. People.

Where is your 700mxz 😢

My luck with old Artic cats were junk.

It's a 71.

Shouldn’t there be a Kawasaki engine in that?

Mixed gas down the cylinders...

Can you please set the camera down?? I'm getting dizzy!

Great vid! But jsyk, an electric battery powered siphon pump is $23 at Tractor Supply… just sayin🫢
