I have a 593-00 Manco Thunderbird. I paid 40$ for it from a friend, and my dad thinks it's not worth anything but scrap metal. It has a 5hp Briggs OHV motor, and it just needed a chain and carb clean, it runs but it won't idle just shuts off. Bought a chain for 16 bucks on eBay.
Is putting money into these worth it? (Maybe 200$, cosmetics and a new 6.5hp) In the long run i'd like to sell it and cut even, don't know much about market on these bikes. I hear it's vintage 1970's.
Anyone have some info on how much they go for? Thanks a bunch!
