I believe this is my old sled! The reason it was last registered in 99 was because I left for the Marine Corps in the winter of 98. I bought the sled with no engine in Pequot Lakes where I lived at the time and it had 800 miles on it. The engine came from my 78 Pantera I rolled. Shortly after getting it running the original odometer quit so that has the one from my 78 in it. I cracked the air box inlets while working on it when it was really cold. Needed to put starting fluid in and got frustrated. I put in the orange slides for the track, 2 rear outside bogies were new in 1996. I put fuel kill switch to keep my brother from riding it. I sold it to a buddies dad around 2010 for a case of beer. I still have the registration card for it somewhere LOL But that sled flies for what it is! Enjoy! So glad to see it out there still ripping up the ditches!

I remembered my father bought a 1977 Arctic Cat Pentera F/C which the seat and gas tank size differ than your F/A version. And the engine housing differ because of the fan. I rode on it as a kid. I am 57 now. I still remember how it is like, the ride, the look, the sound. Truly a Catillac. I could not believe how pretty good shape this one was and how well stored away. I wish I could bought it! Oh well. Thanks for bringing this sled up and brought memories for me. Sure miss it. If I had the $$, for sure I would buy a collector's Pentera rather than the today's sleds. I am short, and that Pentera was right size for me because the new ones today are too big, too high, too heavy, and too wide for me.

Sweet ride, perfect name! How could you not name it Derrel, being a Pantera.Dime was the best, I met Vinny before we lost him and Rita, Dimes woman, good peeps. Man that brought back memories, I grew up on a sled. We would get so much snow the plow would make a natural ramp n we would jump the roads. I went over high velocaraptor once with an El Tiger n the other side of the road dropped down n I must a went 40 feet like a missle and hit so hard she though me off like a bronco... How am I still alive.

Man, I worked for an Artic Cat dealer, from 1977-1980 Other than Rupp's Nitro, there was nothing faster than the El Tigre. I don't remember exactly what happened, but I'm pretty sure our E.P.A. had something to do with the killing off of Artic Cat , Rupp, Scorpion, and I'm sure I forgot some. The Artic Cat is still around, but only by name.
