I do not have a picture of it, But i can describe it.

I think its called "apple rouge" Or something like that.

It is a 50's-60's machine.
It has 2 tracks, and no skis
You sit on a sled that connects behind it.
It is great for hauling alot of weight, or so I have been told.

What I am looking for is information on the machine, and what size should be
in it. It is my father's, and currently, it is engineless.

Thanks,

Micheal

If it is Yellow... It is a Bolens Huski

If it is red... It is a Bolens Diablo Rouge

Both have a hitch pin where the motor/power unit is up front,
the ski trailer unit to ride on is in the back...

The Diablo has model numbers 500, 502 & 503 & was
built in Port Washington, Wisconsin...

Model years were 1967, 68, 1969 ??

If I dig, I may have some advertising literature??
