***Just had some PHOTOS taken of the old trike***********
Have more if needed...........email me if you can help ID this old gal
Just dug out an old trike from the wash here on my father-in-laws property here in Southern Arizona. No clue as to the age or make. Someone said it might be a Cushman??? Did they make any 3 wheelers? This bike looks to be 20-40 years old. Frame is about 48 inches long 34" across the rear axel. the front rim is still there and it's about 9.5" across and 9.25" diameter. No handlebars found or rear tires/rims. We just have a frame and a hunk of metal that was the engine at one time. Looks neat and I'd like to get restoration information if the trike is worth rebuilding. Large sprocket on rear end has eight holes and is 10.25" across. Front forks are about 16" apart and there was a wire basket on the front crushed as was the headlight. This was buried in sand up to one rear sprocket and a side bar/kickstand. The metal/frame is still in good shape and there is no telling if it just washed down the past monsoon season or has been there for years. Thanks for any help and if there are some websites for vintage 3 wheelers let me know ASAP. No numbers or markings found anywhere yet......where would they be?
Thanks
