I have been working on this Rupp Centaur over the winter and finally have it all together so that I can show a few good pictures of it. I have done nothing to it to change it from the way it was delivered from the factory. Some of you may recall that I have posted a thread on this Rupp earlier, but since I bought it in pieces I did not have a decent picture of what it looked like. To refresh everyones memory, this trike was modified at the Rupp factory in July of 1975, at that time I assume the roll bar, chrome gas tank, dual exhaust, custom paint, etc. were added. There is a tag on the frame stating that it it was modified at the Rupp factory. I have a copy of the original title which lists it as a Rupp Centaur 2. It was never sent to a Rupp dealer, but instead sold directly to a customer. It is my hope that someone out there may have some information on this unique machine. I would really like to know its history. I want to give a BIG thank you to Bob Grace, as he is the real deal when it comes to helping you with your Centaur. I have really enjoyed the challenge of putting this back to its original state and assume I will hold it for a few years and then sell it to fund another unique project. I would love to hear your comments. Thanks
