[@tractorguy100]

My dad had one of these. Awesome thanks for putting this on U-tube

[@FSEVENMAN]

My girlfriend's dad had one when I was a little kid, He had the exact same 1971 panther 760 with side pipes his sounded exactly like this one, it was unbelievable and I never forgot about that sled...

only in the south does JLO have air conditioning

[@roberthallam6824]

My dad had a new 634 just like that. I found it again in 1990, restored it and won a first place in the Antique Snowmobile Club of America meet in Waldron Colorado In maybe 1997. Loved it !

[@stevenritchie8849]

Still got it ??? Would love to see pictures

[@roberthallam6824]

@@stevenritchie8849 no, I wish I did though. I gave to a gentleman who also collected, I know where it’s at though. I do have some photographs I’ll dig out. Had a 68 372 Panther also.

Had a puma 760 , what a beast, smoked all the neighborhood competition, actually started fights on my school bus over it, love those deafening side pipes❤

[@glenmallory9982]

You could buy a speedometer kit and install one as an option on these. The downside is for all the noise. The stock ones made they weren’t all that fast probably 70 mph with a huge tailwind was all you’re going to get. Now the racers with a modified 760 they were much faster. The 70 Panther our business built back in the day was clocked at 85mph. Which was incredibly fast for 1970. However fast forward just a few years and the 1972 EXT 440 triples could hit that. This machine is a beautiful snap shot of 1970-71. A moment in time.

Its on natural gas burning 2 stroke

[@rcclassiccrawlers4368]

It’s got an excellent sounding idle.

[@michaelavery848]

Rode with a whole pack of 760 Panthers in Turin Ridge Riders Classic Poker Run. Had a blast seeing them on the groomed trails.

[@quincee3376]

Beautiful!!!!

[@ddellwo]

A majestic beast in her natural element.....!!!

[@ctg6734]

Very cool! Had a couple of these years ago. Kinda wish the pipes had exited from the side of the belly pan vs. going out the front and wrapping around, since the skis tend to bash the header on lumpy terrain.

[@Harpazoed]

Man. This brings back memories.

[@robertlcollins7362]

I had a 70 with the 634 when I was 16 it had the Montana pipes with no baffles drove the neighbors nut took it to school everyday

[@chuck9530]

I had one , the pipes were so loud, it dominated this area racing

[@jexsmx6608]

very nice example of early 70s big bore sled. two families in our area had one of these in 70s/early 80s. machines were monsters but badly abused. one sled lasted about 10 years, the other maybe 15.

[@mixermanbear.4002]

Such a beautiful machine!

[@colleenwarrington3999]

Still love that sled-remember it from Minnedosa derby a few years back...

[@dann3410]

Man that engine sounds great!

[@Matt-mo8sl]

Now THAT'S cool !

[@johnungate1782]

Yes it's a stock 760, have had the same sled forever..good on the fields forget trails

[@SchneiderClassics]

that is an awesome looking machine. way better than the one i had haha

[@davidmelton9162]

beautiful sled, im building a mod sled with some imitation Montana pipes but theirs nothing like the real thing!

[@denniskoolstra3870]

Where do you get the imitation Montana pipes from?

[@hammer2596]

Jello motor with a whipped cream drive!

[@chuck9530]

These were screamers, i was the schoolbus hero in 7th grade, won all races , pissed off alot of newer sled owners

[@quentinraffensperger1699]

is that a stock engine? That's a big displacement for 1971.

[@FSEVENMAN]

To the best of my knowledge yes it's a stock engine my neighbor had one and gave me a ride on it when I was a little kid and I never forgot that panther 760 with side pipes in had the exact same sound that was unbelievable what a great snowmobile..

[@curtekstrom6600]

Yes it is Stock from the factory and out of the Crate.

Nice!!!

[@olegl2002]

Есть фото где Брежнев на таком артик кэт пантер сидит.

[@badlands555]

Funny how many of these had no speedometer on them. Think with this big motor you would want to know how fast you're going.

[@ridewot1]

nice sled

[@angusyoungsg]

Are those pipes factory?

[@denniskoolstra3870]

Yes they are. The 760's were standard with Montana pipes and the 634 was optional. They were discontinued because people burned themselves wit them, so they threw them all away. Wish I could find a set for my 634.

[@FSEVENMAN]

Yes

[@davearmstrong8994]

Nice want to sell it?

[@stevecamozzi3671]

Only 1 carb??

[@curtekstrom6600]

Multiple Carbs are more for Show. I modified a 1978 El Tigre' 6000 with a 440 liquid to a Single Carb (slightly larger). And didn't notice any loss in performance.

[@jlo13800]

[@georgehayduke6717]

Add a 2nd carb
