1978 Ski Doo everest
444 LC
Pre-production
( March 1977 )
THIS IS A REAL
INTERESTING PIECE OF HISTORY.
HERE IS INFO
ON 1977 AND 1978 SKI DOO EVEREST 444 LC.
Hi David - Well,
today I have some cool info. I just bought a 1978 everest 444 lc
from a place about 20 miles away
from valcourt.
I was completely shocked to see that when I went to see it, it has the
serial number 345900001 as verified on
the machine and
on the registration. Its a good fixer upper.
I was wondering
if I could ask you for some information. Everywhere I look on the
web, I see there are people saying that
these began initial
production as the first LC model made by bombardier in 1977 but many other
peices of info I get say they
started in 1978.
It looks to me
that I am holding the very first production model for 1978 in the 444lc.
With the info I just gave you can you
clarify this
all for me? Thanks again for being on the web and for the past support
you gave to me.
