View Full Version : Cool Find
Not a trike but it has fat tires!
Little ol'e lady practically my neighbor was a having a estate sale, she said it runs and was her son's. Im not so sure about the running part but it turns over and appears to be mostly all there.
I offered her 100$ and she snapped it up.

Nice, that should be a great project. If you need a service manual for it I have one listed on ebay right now.
It cleaned up pretty good with just a hose. Tanks full of black crud, bummer but the lady said they drove it two years ago so hopefully it's not rusted bad.
Really glad to get it, and the wife can't say anything because she seen the sale on her way to work and texted me!
Will make a nice companion to my built FatCat.

nice find definitely worth $100
WoW the carb was a mess! Cleaned it out last night and let it soak, more cleaning this morning.
The gas tank soaked overnight filled with apple vinegar and was 95% percent clean this morning. I hosed out the rest with a nozzle on the garden hose.
She runs, not perfect though because I'm sure the carb has some clogged jets again but good enough until I can order a new carb.
The kids getting on it ;)
