It Used To Be A Golden Pinto.......

#1
Hello all-it's been a while since I've been on the site. But I've been busy. Here is my Golden Pinto project. I originally found this back in 2018 on Craigslist locally. I was going to try to restore it back to original shape-but that turned out to be more difficult than I liked. So another member of the forum bought the wheels and tires for his restoration-and I decided to "resto-mod" with emphasis on the Mod. I tried to mount a 212 Predator and the gas tank cap would not come off. So another forum member kindly sent me a Honda cap which worked well. However, another project came up which wound up using the 212. So I got a new 79cc Predator and it scoots nicely. I like the dopey look of 4 inch wheels and scooter tires. I had to fab up a seat hinge and seat brackets-someone had cut off the original seat hinge tube.......Now it's the perfect Pit Bike or for putting around a car cruise....Thanks for looking everyone.

Hey @Timmahhhhh ...welcome back to the site.

That's a neat looking little bike, and the little predator looks good in there.

Especially the pipe, and air cleaner...has an old school look to it.
