Its what ever blows your hair back, when you look at some of the things people restore, you may think why did they bother, but then you may also say to yourself Geeez that looks nice.

You are talking the early U.S. 90 with the large balloon tires? What year? It doesn't really matter what kind or year as long as it is not rusted through real bad I think any trike is worth restoring. I guess it is really up to you-how much money and effort you are willing to put into it.

Thats the real question, because you hardly ever (if ever) get what you put into it.

The early ones are worth saving if there not too far gone. I'm always on the hunt for 90's and parts. If your friend has the original balloon tires I'd be interested in those.
