I posted pics of it in the lounge, I saw a ad for a 70 for a 100 bucks on friday night, I called and it was already gone. I have a spare frame I bought for the hubs and I thought I might as well see if I can put it back together, So I posted a want ad on craigslist, and the guy that bought the 70 on friday calls and says I can buy it for 200 bucks. Wife couldnt believe I would go and look at it, but I figured the guy got a deal and im happy to get one for 200 bucks. It didnt have a spark. But what the heck.
As I stop at the store to grab a coke, a guys standing there looking at the trike in the back of the truck. Asks me if I work on trikes. As we are talking, he tells me he's got a 110 atc that I can have if I take it out of his yard. Turns out its a 90 but what the heck, free is good. I tossed a used pair of tires and cleaned the carb. Tanks isnt rusted, and not a ding on it either. Its missing the front fender, and seat. I rebuilt the recoil and it fired right up! So the tally as of now
2 70s
1 70 frame
2 200Xs
1 90
1 185S
And Ive got a guy emailed me on a 350X that wants to trade for some stuff I have, I really think its just a hoax, but I was real nice answering the email. you never know if the guy is legit. Jim

Roger that Millsi. I started with 1 1/2 70's and now I have 4. I think I can get 3 of them put together with the parts I got.
