Ya I've got one, they made I think 4 models, the one in the picture is the model I have, which is the full race model. It has a 14HP Mcculloch engine that ran on alcohol. I've never ridden it, my dad had it in the 70's but the end of the crank where the clutch went got chipped where they keyway is, and we never fixed it. About 15 years ago when I was a kid, I tore it apart (I regret it now) but lately I've developed an interest in restoring it. I now live in Oklahoma, and my parents live in California, but they are coming out in July and they are bringing it with them. In the mean time, I've been trying to find info on it, but have had no luck. If anybody has any, I would greatly thankfull, Darin.

Hmm... I like it. I agree Troll looks like a hybrid...Trody.
I hope when you start the project we will get to see some good pics. I spent a couple of hours tryin to runn down any thing on the web, got nothing on the company or the description.
This looks like it wouldnt be to hard to fabricate... Damn it Devlin, like I aint got enough projects. oh well no rest for the wicked, at least thats what my good twin always says.

Thanks for trying boofniff, I've done the same thing. I've actually found the company that originally built them and I e-mailed the president and all he said was he had heard of them and this was the right company but had no info. He just didnt want to waste his time I'm sure. I even mailed a letter to the owner who is the son of the original owners, but never got a response.

I think that thing is pretty dumb, honestly (with no offense to the owners)> ANywhoo--if you want one (or another), then here ya go, cheap as they come!

I think it's pretty cool myself. Anything riding on 3wheels (except those funky British cars) is welcome here. dvlinnel, do you have a better scan of that brochure? I'm gonna start a page for this thing. :headbang:

Your not going to like this news, about three weeks ago my neighbor had three of those, and a few jcpennys trikes and he scraped them cus they were sitting in his yard for years, they were there when he bought the house, i went and asked him a few minutes ago if he had any parts left and he said no. Sorry

I think that thing is bad ass for a cruiser. I'd ride all day on that, is that really on 22 bucks!?!? Damn thats mine if no one bids on it!!:D :headbang:
