This thing is a monster!
Aaaah the good ol’ days. Nice restoration project !
nice find looks to be about a 1968 came with a tecumseh engine but rest looks to be about original. A cupel of mine
Someone definitely put a bigger motor on that. I believe the original early 60’s models had a 2 1/2 horse Lauson horizontal shaft engine on them.
tecumseh engine lauson sold to them in 1956. used tecumesh 21/4 to 5 hp on minibikes in the 60s
Yes, 1968 to be exact, but that’s Not a tecumseh engine on the mini bike in the photo the OP posted.
In 1956, Tecumseh Products Company purchased the Lauson Manufacturing Company, which was founded in 1895 by John Lauson. By the time of the purchase in 1956, Lauson Manufacturing Company had grown into one of the largest manufacturers of small gasoline engines in the United States.
I like my alien gear holster.
I put a magnifier lamp on my workbench, but I never use it. Consider a set of these instead along with a good lamp.
It's funny you mentioned that, I just saw a great video on this type of product and I wondered myself if this wouldn't be more useful. Tge only thing about the mag lamp is that even if I don't need magnification I can still blast my work space with light which I find useful. I like a lot of light in general. But those head mounted ones are not expensive so I'll probably get one too.
I use mine all the time
. Cant see worth a damn anymore.
They got super pissy with me when I made a left on Niagara st in front of the burger joint down there. They acted like I murdered someone. I did t get a ticket but it was ridiculous. Two cops for it. My son was there to fish with me so I asked the one if he could get his fishing gear and go fish so he said yes. The other one yelled at me for it.
Looks beautiful. Never heard of them so I had to look them up.
Double ought spaghetti scatter gun. Looks expensive!
Cost me a $10 raffle ticket.
