I was looking to purchase one to, Instead I purchased 1973 jackpiner to go with my 1974 Jackpiner.

LOL:D  Still in the hunt,  possibly Mid Ohio or Rik's November swap!  Never any rush, there are a few still out there needing reborn;)

Kip,

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

cheers,

Kip,

Vance no longer has that bike, it went to a guy from Buffalo, NY

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.

Kip Kern

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.
