Picked this frame up from a buddy for $40, Hopefully I can get it together before Symco. It's not going to be 100% original but I am going to try for a stock look.



I also pick up this working home made generator with a good running 5hp Briggs for $45



Over the weekend I was able to make some progress.Wheels dissembled and sealed bearings installed, made wheel spacers, engine test fit, scrub brake working and cleaned up the frame a bit. I also order a bunch of parts from OldMiniBikes that will hopefully be here tomorrow.

Current state:

Just a clutch, I didn't realize there was a difference in the covers. I need swap the crank out of the current engine as it has a 1'' crank.
