Mines a 1988... No title... Was built for and operated by NYCPD.. It runs very well, but it don't stop. NO BRAKES.. There hydraulic drums just like you would find on a older car. You can get all the parts for them through Dennis Carpenter. If your interested in a "project" I have another that I would sell, but shes going to need some work! Let me know. I'm close to Harrisburg, Pa.

Thier awesome. My Dad has, I think every Cushman they made except for a Eagle. I have a 1956 Truckster in the garage now. As far as value, just do what you have to do to get it bought within reason. There easy to work on and you can get any and all parts, however the cabed trucks are a little tight to do any real engine work on, on them you can just drop everything out the bottom.

I work for the City of Pasadena, and the city has been using Cushman trucks for decades. For parking enforcement, sanitation, and parks maint. Unfortunately the parts are getting real hard to get because the company has changed hands several times, and they are being phased out. We have at least half a dozen of them parked out back because the rear axles are broken, the people who load them just don't use common sence, and hence overload them to the point of failure. A 98 modle uses a 1000cc Daihatsu engine with either a automatic or manual transmission. If not for the current parts situation we would probably still be buying them! Any help with information or technical assistance, PM me.

I have a mid '60s three-wheeled Truckster with a 12hp Kohler K301 flathead and an all-iron three speed trans. My old man has a late '70s/early '80s Truckster of similar style, except is has the aluminum transmission and a hydraulic dump bed.
They are simple and quite easy to work on, but the brake and electrical systems are weak points.
