Kip,

I think Vance Smith has or has had a blue husky 175. If not, he may know who does.

cheers,

I got a 1975 Husqvarna GP175 last November. Bought it in boxes for $450. Put it together (2 days), and sold it for $600. What a waste of time, won't do that again.
Anyway- there are two models of the blue '75 175's. A GP, and a Cross Country. Don't know all the differences, but the GP has an Amal carb, and the CC has a Bing.

Thanks guys, I would be interested in the CC with the Bing, Amal is not my bag. No worries though, one will pop up!

Kip, one of the guys over on the Vinduro list is looking for you regarding a couple of 175's he found.
