1969 OMC JOHNSON CHALLENGER SNOWMOBILE

David, Thank you and best wishes for a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
I have recently completed the restoration of the make/model snowmobile I first rode as a kid on
the farm.  1969 Johnson CHALLENGER 297.  It was my grandfathers, ridden by my father, aunts, and
uncles then it arrived on the farm where it was enjoyed every year till sold when I was in my 20’s for
$25 at an auction. 
 
I found this machine while having a conversation with a customer when we discovered a shared love
for old sleds.  I brought it home from Wausau, WI February of 2019 and just finished the work last
night.  Lots of powder coated parts, all new bearings and seals, and detailed hardware.
I replicated the optional seat storage option and converted a rear stand from a 20” Evinrude sled.
Runs great, keeps the memories alive. Enjoy.
Thanks for the dedication to the industry and sport we all love. Todd Carlson

THANKS TODD FOR THE GREAT PICTURES !
