Would anyone on the forum have or know of anyone having miscellaneous parts for a vintage 1973 Skidoo Elite snowmobile. Please let me know if you do. Thanks!

Oh man that is one BA machine! I would really love to see some pics of what you are working on.

Anyway as far as parts for such a machine, there are TONS of people here in Maine that have vintage snow mobile parts and parts yards. One guy I can think of off the top of my head is a guy named Vaun Waterman. He has TONS of vintage sleds. Tractor trailers and warehouses full of stuff. You might try and give him a call. IDK how his shipping is but when ever someone local needs vintage parts he is the first person we call.

Vaun Waterman 207 929 4574

You never know, it's worth a shot. And if I can be of any assistance I would be more then happy to pack and ship any parts for you. His place is not too far from me.

GL with the BA machine!

weloveour86se, Thank you very much for the information!
Would you happen to know his email address, if possible please forward it to me.
Thanks again, canfirst

I don't think he has email sadly. He an older gentleman and is very old school. Phone is the best chance of getting ahold of him.

If you like PM me with a brief description of the parts your seeking and I will be glad to call him for you. I could at least see if he even has any antique side X side parts. Honestly this guy has TONS and TONS of stuff! Yards and trailers and buildings full. One building is 2 stories, end to end, top to bottom old sleds!!

I would be glad to help in any way I can!

HAGN!
Andrew

weloveour86se,
Hello Andrew, here is a link/photo to/of my vintage 1973 Skidoo Elite (the previous Owner painted it blue/gold, but original colors are white/yellow, colors will be changed back to original):

The photo is of the Drivers side and shows the rear red side marker light which is missing from the Passenger side.
This is the part I'm looking for, I believe both sides are interchangeable. If possible, could you check and see if this marker light might be available and if so for what cost?
I would love to see that snowmobile bone yard, it sounds absolutely amazing!
Thank you again for your reply and offer to help, it's sincerely appreciated!
Cheers,
John

Bump for update.

Srry Cani. I been super busy this year. Working 6-7 day weeks. Uncle Sam loves me BTW.

Anyway I haven't been out to the yard this guy has yet but my neighbor went a few weeks ago. He picked up a couple of bogeys I needed for my sled and some parts he needed. So this yard is still there and running. The guy is super busy supposedly with TONS of customers. I have tried calling and have yet to get someone answer. My neighbor says it's best to call early am working hours and late pm working hours.

Try giving the guy a call. His name is Vaun Waterman. 207 929 4574. He will probably at the very least know where to score some parts for you or point you in the right direction.

GL Mang!
