That is a Cheeftah...Clinton would have been the original motor.

Would it have had electric start like this one shown, or would have been a different Clinton engine?

My bad...I wasn't very clear with that statement. It would originally have a Clinton motor on it. Right now it has a Tec BB off a snowblower. It is this bike in the pic below..

I just re read the listing and noticed that it did say it had a Tecumseh engine, sorry about that

I would grab it, looks fairly complete.

It's still a smoking deal regardless and Clintons aren't impossible to find, well worth posting here and we're glad you did. Someone here sees is saves it and everyone wins especially the hobby. Still has the Clinton tank which is a plus.

If I had the extra coin I would make the roadtrip north for it..........................Tom.

I'll try contacting the seller later in this week. I'm only 90 miles from Alpena.

Missed it. Sounds like it went to a good home.
