Hey, everybody. This is my first post, and I wanted to introduce my project. I'm rebuilding my first (and only) mini bike from my childhood. To the best of my knowledge, it's a 1979 Manco Orange Crush. I've run across differing details regarding the ID, but this is what I'm sticking with. I've seen two or three others (at least one in these forums) on the interwebs, but they are certainly not as plentiful as Rupps. I've had a lot of fun working on bringing it back so far. I'm taking a pretty conservative approach to the project, keeping the original engine. I'm also pretty hit or miss with the photos, but I've included some from the initial tear down.
