Just Picked Up My First 2 Vintage Mini Bikes

[JeffB1965]

I just picked up 2 vintage mini bikes.

First one is an MTD and was hoping I could get some info on it such as parts availability and how correct/complete it is.

Second one is an Alley Kat by SportsStyle which was made locally to me in Lewistown,Pa. as with the MTD any info on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanx here are some pix.

Welcome, there are good folks here.
Nice bikes.
There are some MTD lovers here.
Never heard of an Alley-Kat, I’ve got some investigating to do. It looks like a really cool bike.

Love the old Alley Kat's! I love the ape hanger bars. I had one when I was a kid,bought brand new in 1972 in PA. Auto world in Scranton. Nice find,looks to be complete as far as I remember!

Thanks!!!! Ive been wanting a vintage mini to ride around at the car shows but im thinking this is just the new hobby ive been looking for. Im going to work on the MTD first as it isnt running atm the Alley Kat runs just needs cleaned up and a little general maintenance. Ill post more pix once I get it al cleaned up. The torque conv gaurd is pretty cool. the pic doesnt do it justice. Its plastic but has glitter all through it. pretty wild looking.

Got the MTD all cleaned up. And took the vinyl cover off the seat only to find the original one was still there. Waiting for handle bars,carb, foot peg covers to arrive. Im picking up the Alley Kat Sunday. Pix to follow once I get her cleaned up.
