So I picked up a few more toys today from a guy and he had this atc110 on the trailer. He said something about toinesta trikes and was talking about how it used to be painted red white and blue. I just looked it up and it looks to be the same one if im not mistaken. The tank might have been repainted but it's painted just like the one on the site.192163192164 and here is the one I have 192161192162 anyone know if this could be it?

That decal on the rear fender, right side up front sure looks like it's damaged in same places on the corners. I agree looks to be the same to me as well.

I can verify - that is my old trike for sure - much has been changed over the years I see. BTW - it's "Tionesta" Trikes.

Sorry for the misspelling, it was a long day and I was kinda excited to actually have some history on something I own. I haven't really looked it over but the exhaust, seat and headlight are long gone. I have enough parts to at least make it a runner for what i have layin around.

It came as a lot with 4 other 3 wheelers and a trx125 quad for 500 bucks and i have to put a 110 together for his son. Not a bad deal I think192313Here's the trailer full when the guy pulled in my drive. Needless to say my wife was PISSED lol

I might rebuild it back close to its former glory. I was thinking of using 90 fiberglass fenders and a us90 metal fender on the front. That way I could paint the back ones with stripes like the seat used to be and stars on the front to kinda finish it off. I don't know though, I have a few projects ahead of this one so it will have to wait a while

I might try to get it ready for TF next year. That would be cool. Whatcha y'all think?

So I'm thinking about using a set of low pofile race fenders on the back of this(since the originals are cracked) and an aftermarket chain tensioner i found that i might be picking up today.

Would look good man. Need to hook yourself up with a tube frame for it and build a nice motor! 54mm, shorty intake, cam and carb. You'd do fine!

Hey atctim, would you (or anyone else) like to see this thing brought back to life?

It's not just this one - I like to see any and all trikes brought back to life.

I just figured this one might have some sentimental value to you lol. I wonder how it made it to Indiana from PA?

"I-Trike" Curt bought it from me several years ago - he used to live in Indiana but now lives in Florida.
Again - all trikes have sentimental value to me. Bring it back to it's glory!
