    I know the feeling when you sell something you put so much time and money into.
    Im sure the new owner will get many years of enjoyment from that machine with all the upgrades you did.
    Did you sell the tracks with it?
    I hope the new owner becomes a member of 6x6 world so we can see it in action.
    I love the older style argos but they are very hard to find in Ontario especially in that good condition.

    Yes, plott i know the feeling, when the 06 went down the road it was very hard to watch. When you have a tried and true machine it is hard to part with. Hope the new guy realizes all the upgrades that are in that machine. It has a completely redone bottom with splined axles and that is a major plus. Hope a member bought it or a soon to be member. We would like to hear of it's new adventures and maybe a video. Hope your new machine works out well my friend.
