Nothing makes ya feel safe in a war like riding around on a scooter!!! In that instance I think I would take my Lammy.... be a heck of a lot faster.

Nice Billy. I like it too.

I can only afford one of these.

I wanna get one of the husky's and make it into a copy of the really cool ones
Weld the parachute rings on it and all that stuff.
If we ever get a large enough hunk of land
Instead of a lawn tractor I want one of those jeep mules

There was a guy on a go kart site that made a nice scaled replica of a mule. Seriously cool.

Here it is.

I had a 65 cushman super silver eagle when I was 18 and sold it. Would like to travel back in time and kick the snot out of myself for doing that.

Had my share of mustangs, cushmans and whizzers. I am working on a whizzer now.

there was

a civilian model that looks very close to this one. It was a highlander.

At 14 I got my 1st Cushman,. It was a 1947. I think it was a racing model. Dad and me worked on it all week so I could get an hour ride on Saturday.

Ride an hour, break down, repair all week. In 1957 Santa claus brought me a new eagle in baby blue. Had lottsa girlfriends then.

I'm thinking that that would not be a difficult design to copy, unless it's the idea of having a real one. What type of transmission did they have?
