Kelly is probably out on his boat drowning worms right now so we'll drop this in to keep things current.

I like it! Certainly would seem to bring people in the door. According to the ad, you could also buy a used, year-old 72 that was basically the same sled for $525 and it was guaranteed. Ah....have to love those days.

$1045 in 1973 would be around a little less than $8000 in today's money.

Very interesting when you consider that the RTX 440 was the top of the Skiroule line in terms of power, styling, and all-around performance, not a stripped down entry-level sled. Technology is a wonderful thing but boy is it expensive. Order a new sled today and I'm thinking you could pay at least double that.
