Hi OldMiniBikes forum readers, I just finished up repainting my 1970 Taco 22. I bought it on craigslist for an amazing price of $100.

Hi everyone, my name is Mat, and I'm from central NY. I found this site the other day, and it got my interest going to revive my old minibike that's in my shed. I picked this little guy up from a coworker about 10 years ago. The engine was blown and I put on a harbor freight engine. The...
When I was removing the spray paint from my minibike I found decals on the frame and fenders but Im not sure what color.. anyway Im trying to buy new decals but I cant find any. Orange and black would be awesome but I might paint the bike again to match the decals. The bike was green from the...
I bought my first mini bike on Mothers Day at a garage sale a 70 Cat Eliminator. Then a last Sunday I picked up this non running 70 Ruttman with an old Briggs on it off Craigslist for $110. I was told it ran last year, got it home no gas in the tank. Fired right up. It was originally orange...
I just picked this one up last night from CL. Im trying to find out more info like when they were made and what models. Heres a pic of mine but I put the gas tank in the basement already. Its going to a garage this weekend with the rest of my minibikes. I need a seat and a carb but I might have...
Made my 1st "minibike project" purchase last night and hope I did ok. I am not doing a "correct" restoration as I believe that the bike is missing too many original parts. I am just looking to make a nice rider. I believe it to be a 1971 Rupp Scrambler. It has the original green paint under...

Picked this up yesterday and started work on it right away. Like I do t have enough projects. Lol
Started to strip the frame. Ran out of daylight so worked on the motor for it through the night. Got it running then tore it down. Plan is to paint it white. It's a h25 just not the side popper...

I am starting to work on this minibike that I have had for decades. It is little more than a frame but pretty solid. I think it's a Sears Drover. The bottom layer of paint is a limey green. I have more pictures if additional detail is needed. I want to stay fairly close to original when I build...
