This Cushman was bought from the original owner who's Dad bought it for him in 1958. It runs great! Keep it like it is or restore. 2,700.00

Here are a couple of youtube links of the scooter.

Some one should jump on this quick. It's a great deal. I have been wanting one for a while. Now is not a good time for me to buy. :cry:

When I was a kid I would have died and gone to heaven
if I'd had one of those.

I did have a cushman when I was in high school.. it gave me a lot of freedom to roam and explore.. Wish I had kept it, not because it would be high tech today, but for sentimental reasons, would be nice to take it out for a spin on a nice day...

My honda silverwing scooter is better in almost every regard.... but that cushman spring seat.... ah, they should still use them. It was the best part of the scooter..... my sliverwing seat is a pain in the.... well, you get the idea.

The cushman had a tractor style seat that fit my butt and had a very nice compliant ride...

Hiya, Lee!

You don't happen to have an ambulance or flower car that needs a good, torque-ey small-block Chevy engine for it, do you? I've got a brand new, never-been-fired 400 ci (lotsa low-end torque goodies on it) with a fresh TH400 trans ... I'll trade ya ... :R ...!

Wish I had the money, my Friend ... that'd fit right in with an upcoming project I've got in the works ...

CHEERS!

Hi Grant,

Thanks for the offer; but I don't need a motor at the moment.

I was just looking at the drawing you went me a while ago of the 7X15. Are you starting the build? I am considering one still myself.

Hi, Lee!

I've got no need for one, myself, and no one else seems to want/need one at this time, so ... no, I haven't started one. Besides, I've been pretty much laid up and laid out for the last month, so not much of anything is getting done ... :x ... (good thing I have a good friend who is coming in and getting the packaging & shipping done for me ... :thumbsup: ...!).

Hey ... a trailer like that ought to be worth at least a couple of nicely restored scooters, dontchya think ... :lol: ... :lol: ... :lol: ... :lol: ...?

As always, my Friend ...

CHEERS!

Grant

Ok; this will be the last bump up to the top.

I've had a few people intersted but it still needs a new home.

I will be traveling to las vegas ,los Angeles,San diego and SLO mid March and could bring it down.
