In my opinion, the concept of FB, as originally envisioned, has largely gone away. Most of the people I know that are friends in real life or just on FB rarely post or share anything anymore or have closed their accounts outright. The standard feed is now mostly an avalanche of ads, promotions...

I don't call it the Meta wasteland for nothing but Gary or I or other members with accounts will make sure the updates get posted here.

I'm pretty sure you're not alone in that reaction. The Three Old Guys group did get back to me and, as Gary said, they will only be providing direct updates via FB. I'm not familiar with ArcticInsider but it sounds like an option. It shouldn't really be a problem as there are plenty of...

I've sent them a message to see if they are going to have an update website other than the Meta wasteland. If I hear back, I'll post their response. Otherwise, as rayds said, they have a page on FB. If you have an account, you can get there via this link: Three Old Guys FB page

As I’m sure some of you already know, the boys are back. After a year delay due to lack of snow, they are getting ready to launch their next adventure: A sled trip from Grand Rapids, MN to the Atlantic coast of Newfoundland. They’ll be riding Catalysts this time instead of the big utility sleds...

Sorry gang, nothing new to update on the project this time. I’m hoping the new seat will show up about a week and a half. But not being one to let the shop set idle unnecessarily, I took the opportunity to mess with the 440 a little. Took the hood off to do a little hinge repair, replaced the...

-27 up at Lake of the Woods this morning but at least the wind was down (somewhat). Had gusts to 50 on Friday into Saturday and even though there was only an inch of fresh stuff, blowing snow really made visibility tough at times. Think it was even worse in North Dakota.

Don't know if was the case in your situation but it's my understanding that Bob did have a fishing boat that he named "The Front Row". Pretty funny.

Sad to hear that Bob has passed but can't help but smile just hearing his name. Think it would be hard to find anyone that wasn't a fan of Bob. How could you not be with gems like this: "When I came up to bat with three men on and two outs in the ninth, I looked in the other team's dugout and...

Thanks guys! I was telling Elf the other day that I’m starting to smell victory on this thing. Talked to the seat guy last Monday and his exact words were: “You’ll have it by the end of January.” When that happens, the last piece of the puzzle will be in place. It took me a while to decide on a...

You won't get any argument from me. The appeal of these sleds has stood the test of time. Hood came together, sometimes kicking and screaming (or maybe that was me). Makes a big difference I think.

That track looks amazing! Should make for some impressive racing.

Now it’s time… Vintage sled, vintage beer – great combination.

I decided to post one final shot of the lower chassis without the hood, since a few things have happened since the most recent posts: air box is on, both clutches and belt mounted, belt guard and bumper are also cleaned up, painted, and installed and a few other minor items/adjustments...

Thanks guys! I am looking forward to clearing the last few mechanical items off the list and getting back to the hood work. It’s hard to believe it was around the end of September that the painting was finished on it and it has sat that long without anything done to it since. It will take a...

To use Mezz’s term, the project has moved on to a new phase. Motor is in and everything it needed to run is hooked up. I shouldn’t have been nervous about firing this one up for the first time, especially since it was running before I started messing with it. Maybe that’s why I was nervous...

Merry Christmas Everyone! Motor is back together. Guess it doesn’t look all that much different but it does have new crank seals and motor mount bushings. Still has nice blue spark so she’ll run once she’s back in the sled. While it isn’t a very exciting motor to look at, it’s a reliable...

Merry Christmas!🎅🎅🎅

Just caught this now. Happy (late) Birthday!

Absolutely Awesome, well Done! Enjoy the rewards of your labor.
