26 years ago, I was 13 years old. I wanted a 86 200x for Christmas. I didn't know if I would get it or not but I was hoping I would. My dad has always had 3 wheelers around the farm but I never had one of my own. I woke up that Christmas morning and had some presents under the tree and started opening them. I came to one present and It had a pair of fox dirt paw gloves in it and a map. The map led me outside up to the barn in the stock trailer where I found a brand new 200x. I couldn't believe it. I jump on it and rode it back down to the house. I would love to find pictures of that Christmas morning but havn't been able to find any. How many of you have still got a Christmas present your got from 26 years ago? I'm happy to say that I still have my 200x restored to almost new condition. http://i811.photobucket.com/albums/zz40/stroberts22/DSC01668_zps7f6e87c7.jpghttp://i811.photobucket.com/albums/zz40/stroberts22/DSC01667_zps9ee44fb1.jpghttp://i811.photobucket.com/albums/zz40/stroberts22/DSC01666_zps61b61e7d.jpghttp://i811.photobucket.com/albums/zz40/stroberts22/DSC01665_zps194e610e.jpg
