Hello Sean,

When I was a teenager in the mid sixties the very first snowmobile I drove was a Husky-600. What a MONSTER. To make thing more interesting, the family friends who owned it decided it need u shaped stainless steel toothed (teethed) cleets on top of every wooden cleat. This made it difficult to steer, but it would could and did claw its way out of anything. In the days before groomed trails made life easy, driving the bucking front tractor while determined to remain seated on the sleigh was truly a challenge. After several happy years with the 600 it was replaced with a Diablo Rouge. My memory includes the number 444 but I cant place if that was the Diablo Rough model number or if we also had the earlier model of the 600.

The last information I had was that these machines were sold by a farmer in rural Ontario, near Ottawa, to a collector in the Ottawa-St. Lawrence area.
Lots of great memories of these machines. True monsters of the snow.

Good luck in your hunt.
Larry
