When you think about Polaris, you probably associate it with being the parent company of Indian Motorcycle. However, they have been involved in snow-related vehicles well before that. This 1964 Polaris Sno-Traveler Pacer K80D is a great example of their early work. It is powered by an eight-horsepower Kohler 305cc single-cylinder engine, and includes features such as steel skis, rubber treads, a curved windscreen, and leaf-spring suspension. The steering is controlled by a body-colored yoke with black rubberized grips and two levers in the seating area manage the brake and throttle.

The current seller, who acquired it in 2023 from a collector, has completely refurbished it. The vintage snowmobile is being sold on Bring a Trailer in Oregon, and can be shipped elsewhere depending on the location of the auction winner. The pull-start engine runs well according to the video, although it might not be suitable for riding. The auction ends on December 1, 2023, and the current bid is $2,712. The sale includes a vintage brochure and other period paperwork. If interested, check the link in the sources for more photos or to place a bid.

Furthermore, the seller found a fun Polaris promotional video from 1965 featuring the Sno-Traveler.
