How it looks now. My dad removed the tracks as according to him they do too much damage on the village road. Changed some broken tires, added a mattress as there was no seat, replaced all the chain-tensioner springs and replaced a broken wheel-bearing.
Yeah, it is. The mattress absorbs all the bumps. I'm not sure how it feels to drive with the original seat as mine was missing when I got it. The previous owner drove it through the ice whiteout putting the plugs in..so it sank to the bottom.
Just purchased this 91 Argo Magnum... started the refurb process already. Came with new chains, new sprockets, new inner & outer bearings and all new tires.. 105 hr's on the engine. Had to rebuild the windshield frame due to it being twisted and cracked by previous owner trying to take it off the wrong way, polished the oxidized lexan windshield, modded the brush bar to fit the newer roller fairlead and fit the Argo properly, recovered the front seats and fabricated and covered the back seats as well. The body had 3 cracks on the passenger side that I plastic welded back together. Now I just have to fab up an alternator bracket and install an alternator, replace the headlights with some LED lights and a few other mods to make it more my style. . https://scontent-yyz1-1.xx.fbcdn.net...c0&oe=5BF74E15 . https://scontent-yyz1-1.xx.fbcdn.net...32&oe=5BFBDABC
This is getting traded in as we speak for a 2019 800 Avenger.
Has been an amazing machine and only and Argo would make sense for what I need it to plow, climb etc.
Well she made it home yesterday.
2020 Aurora on tracks with soft cab.
Now need to get outboard mount for some slow calm day trolling.
Can't wait for next winter (first time I have said that) for ice fishing...
New to the Argo ownership. The picture is a 2012 750 HDI 8x8, picked it up last September and just put the tracks on last weekend, love it so far and sure it will get me to places I only wished I could get to on the 4-wheeler.

This is my Argo Magnum.
ODG gave me the Information of the Model Magnum and that it is from Okt. 1982...
Dont know, maybe it is a Argo 8 I/C.
It is from England Crayfords of Westerham.
The Kohler M18S is still running great.
In the big river behind it i am driving it with a 9,8hp Outboard Motor.
8 km/h river down, 3kmh river up
Doesnt look like a Magnum,I think its a I/C. Magnum has a Kohlermotor and exhaust comes out thru the body and not thru the screen on the side. Also all Magnums had hydralic brakes not sure on I/C models.
