Picked up Mattdragontamer (3ww.org) up from Edmonton International and mad a pit stop at a wrecking yard on our way up to Cold Lake. After asking the guy if he had any trikes he pointed to the back of his yard. Wow what a surprise! Matt is looking at the two Taurus' and I'm interested in the Pacesetter. Not sure what we're getting into?

They are really cool, i have never seen or heard of anything like these. Good luck getting parts. And are they belt driven? Also new to me. Got any history or specs on these machines?

A green Taurus, nice! Between the 2 hopefully there's enough parts to make one nice one.

That one that Nick has is off the chain, the engines might only make 8hp but they've got torque like a freaking bull dozer!

That's the plan Fabio and BRguy. Going to call him again this week since apparently they belong to his brother in law. I just hope he's reasonable. Both are missing the drive clutches for some reason? The brown one still has the chrome air cleaner on it.

12" of ground clearance? 7 gallon tank? This machine sounds like a beast and can haul a ton. Ahead of its time.

They probably ended up on a Skiroule or Alouette
