I have started working on the 2 Tricubs that I acquired last year. These were both originally 8hp/elec start units (model 38E), which seem to be considerably scarcer than the 5hp version. The first unit (unit A for this thread) is pretty nice, unmolested body and frame, but no engine. I have a...

Last week I took delivery of 3 additional Sperry Rand trikes for my collection. My friend also brought his Tricart along, so we had to take advantage of this rare photo-op. New for me: ● Tricub, 5hp, all-original survivor. Original balloon tires still holding air! ● Tricub, original and...
