Y'all aren't going to believe this.
I am in the process of looking through this old thread and low and behold I have what looks to be like the elusive Powerdyne Mighty Mite in my yard as yard art!
Been planted for like 10 years. Some subtle differences but that may be due to pre production picture vs final product.
The thread in question;

The fold down kickstand is a loop and not the square deal they show in the advertisement and it has a plate on the fork instead of being open.
Also not on the close up of the fork plate that the handlebars have been crudely re-welded. So they may have been pitched forward as seen in pic or not.
Either way I can confirm it has the 8 slot motor plate just like the Rupp.
You can also see that the original Disc caliper is still present. Nuts.
Some previous genius put a big bar in the hole/mounts for the jackshaft ( Surely to aid in stunt riding)
When I got this bike it was outside and I remember saying "Too bad it doesn't have the wheels" and the guy responds "Oh I have them, they're over here in the shed"
Walla! he produces the Powerdyne finned wheels in great shape. Needless to say they got sold off to someone who needed them and the bike remained here.
I wanted to originally get it back in running condition but could not get the lower fork leg to let loose and didn't want to bust it off so the bike got planted.
That Yard Art just got me a nice Bonanza MB1210 recently because the guy who came to see me about buying it said "I always look at that mini bike when I come by your house so I knew who I was going to approach when it was time to let this go"
So it pays to advertise to your neighbors!
Pics in a few minutes, stand by.
