What year model is it?

I just got this Tote Gote. It looks similar to my 1958 frame, but there are a few differences. The forks look heavier, it has a front brake, and the rear axel is on top of the frame, not underneath like the 58, and the throttle looks way different. It does have a Briggs engine, but I don't know if it is the original or not.

Can you tell me what year and model is it is?

This one has some really bad rust in the back where the frame curves up, I will have to replace that. Other wise the bike looks in great condition and it runs great, and the clutch works.

Thanks

Rob

Your Tote Gote is a model VS (before the model B). The throttle is original. Ralph called this his second generation throttle and worked opposite from modern throttles. What clutch did it have? Usually they have a Depco clutch set.

Thanks for the info. Yes it has the deepco clutch. It looks pretty much original, I am hoping to keep this one all original. Just have to get the rusted out spot on the frame fixed and a new rear tire and it is good to go.

Thanks again for the info
