Note 1: According to the sheet I originally took this info from there were 4000 VIP's produced in 1973. However, the VIP's first year of production was in 1974 and there were only 6 prototype VIP's built for 1973. The VIP model was produced for 1974 and 1975 only.

Note 2: No mention was made as to the Alley Cat on the sheet I originally took this information from. The Alley Cat was built in 1973 only from excess inventory using a 305 4 cycle Kohler engine, chrome skis, EXT seat, and had the big mouth style hood amoung other things. Exact production figures are unknown.
