RUPPS UNTOLD STORY
Due to slow sales of my book, "THE RUPP SNOWMOBILES FROM THE BEGINNING TO THE END", the sale of this book will end.
In the next month or more, I will post most of the entire contents of this book within my blog on a daily basis, from page 1 to the end, however, some pages may not be possible as I'm doing this mostly as a "copy and paste" off of my computer "This will be Free of Charge".
Thank you for being part of my blog and I hope you enjoy reading my book.
