Howdy, living in the land of Utah... I've run across this. Am I right in this one being a 1959?

Thanks. Got it.

Thanks so far. I got the engine here. Problem is, I have the serial numbers & such... but cannot seem to find anything that matches this. Thoughts?

Hi, A friend gave me this Tec. I didn't get the numbers and it'll be at my place in a day or so. He claims it's a 5hp and came from an older wood chipper. Can any of the gurus here tell me by just a picture what hp it might be, possibly a year too? I know I know, I'm sure I could wait &...

Thanks. Now if I could just get some folks to build one themselves and join me for a race, that'd be fun.

Thanks for the comments. Here's some of the others.

Hi, Was the flo jet carb from a 5HP briggs the same as the 3hp one here? http://www.oldminibikes.com/forum/mini-bike-parts/93635-briggs-flo-jet-carb.html Thanks for your time.

Shoot me a pic of the one you need, I may have one for ya.

Ok, more to the point... I need the pull starter/shroud like the one pictured and the carb all the way to the block. I have other briggs that would work for this. Got one you'd sell? I have a UPS account for shipping so no issues there.

Hi, I'm looking for a Briggs 5hp with the Updraft carb in usable condition for a project of mine. I've attached a pic of one I have, and a pic of the project. (slightly photoshopped) Willing to go up to 100 bucks for it. Thanks for looking. Kelly "Kart Rods" Wood

Hi, I'm Kelly. I've been here for a while and did one mini bike long ago but since then I've gotten into something else. What is that you ask? The Custom Hot Rod Go kart arena. Anyway, here's a few photos of what I do with nothing but parts & spare stuff. Thanks for looking. Kelly "Kart...

Seat's not on yet, but it goes a bit back from where it used to be. Not sure yet.

Thought I'd pop on by & show y'all what became of this old thing. Kelly KartRods.com

More on the saga... turning it into a themed thing... LOL That thing on the front came from the fiberglass back end of a quarter midget... Probably put a mock mini-gun in it or something... then add some ammo cans on the back for saddle bags. :grind:
