Well, actually DZLBIKE found it and pointed me in the direction. It was a 4.5 hr. round trip and well worth it....to me at least. Was a fun road trip, my 15 year old daughter still likes "adventures w/ Daddy"..... Especially when it's a bike SHE wants. We just hop in the truck and go:thumbsup:

Got there and the guy says.."ya know it doesn't run, don't ya?" I said "yeah, I figured that's why it was leanin' against this tree".

I think this little gal could ride anything she decides to. I brought one of my old weird bicycles out on my last visit and she took off on the thing like she owned one all her life! Next time I'm bringing a unicycle! :laugh:

Nice! is that an 8 or a 10HP, looks like its not missing any major part either.Should be a fun easy build. Have fun with it.

10hp....just need a torque converter cover. She's got spark, throttle shaft is free and no slop. I think the tires are original and in great shape. I really don't think it was ridden much....just kinda neglected and left outside.

Wow, Nice Bike! It looks like she has all the original parts. I have not seen one so complete. Wish we all had friends like that to point us in the right direction.:thumbsup:

the parts that it has that you haven't seen are add on parts. But they can be hard to find no the less.

Mine was 100% original but since I am restoring mine I want to get those add on parts.

Its hard to believe that someone would just give up on a bike like this one day and leave it outside for years. Even when I was young I would have taken it apart to see if I could of fixed it. Might not of been able to get it back together, but I would have tried :laugh:
