Ive sat on HOWDYs 90!! Its a COOL ride. You guys would not believe how it sounds. He had it running at TF05, its AWSOME.
I know it was shipped to him piece by piece, every day he had the delivery guy wondering waht was in the BOXs??? If I remember rite he had to take him in and show it off when the last few parts came in. I am sure there are quite a few pictures of it in the TF05 picture disk.

Let me first state this AGAIN> It's NOT a 110. It is a 1974 ATC90 that was tricked out.


I'd like to see the original articles on the build up too!

Here are 2 scans from the First Issue of 3Wheeling Magazine:

Do I have this right, the article is about you (Howdy) building this trike? Or did you buy it. Ether way that is a cool looking trike.

In 1980 Dean Kirsten and his crew built the trike up for the Magazine 3Wheeling. I wanted the machine back then, but had no chance of getting it. 25 years later Dean Joined this web site ( Old Fart ) and mentioned he still had it. He named the price and I purchased it. He shipped it to me in a crap load of boxes. Once I got most everything I started putting it back together. While I did buy it from Dean, I still feel he is a part owner of it. If it wasn't for him keeping it for 25 years, then another piece of history would be lost.
Thanks Again Old Fart!!!

That's cool 25 years later you got what you wanted. I guess patience pays off. I would have been sweating bullets waiting for the parts hoping they did not get broke or lost.

You can't even imagine how much I worried about this. My wife was happy when I got the last package. I didn't realize how bad I was until everything got here.

howdy do you have any plans to re do it to its former glory?

[Orangecnty250r]

That is just the coolest score since sliced bread!!!!

I'm still debating that question. I like the thought of it as being 100% original now, But I do know it needs some things cleaned, Polished, paint touched up, and some parts re-chromed. I am 100% sure it will cost more to restore it than it did to buy and ship it.


That is just the coolest score since sliced bread!!!!
I think so. If you knew what I have in it you ( and many others ) would be mad they didn't jump on it. You might even have me arrested for theft. lmao j/k
