THIS WEEK'S RUPP

1971 RUPP 800 MAGNUM picture and info courtesy Josh Kronstedt (Ruppsforever) from WI.

Owner: Bob Kronstedt

This is one of the most sought after RUPP race sleds. This model was

 Rupp Industries designated 1971 MOD V  (800cc) racer.

In Josh's words;

 This picture was taken after we had it running for the first and only time since my dad bought it.  He bought it with 12 miles on it.  That day he rode it around the house a bunch of times.  It now has 13.5 miles on it.  It has been sitting on the shelf since.  This sled came from California.  I'll give the whole story about it after I talk to my dad after he gets home saturday.   Go ahead and post it though.   My dad is Bob Kronstedt.  Thanks ,   JOSH

Thank you Josh for sharing this beauty with us, it's very much appreciated!!!
