1948 CUSHMAN MODEL 50 ( 2 SPEED TRANS) STEP THROUGH SCOOTER. I RECENTLY BOUGHT THIS THINKING I COULD RECAPTURE MY YOUTH AS I HAD ONE IN 1955. AGE AND ABILITIES (ALONG WITH BALANCE) SEEM TO DICTATE THIS WAS NOT SUCH A GOOD IDEA.IT HAS CLEAR KENTUCKY TITLE,SOLD TO ME AS RECENTLY RESTORED BY G. MORGAN OF FLA.(DO NOT BUY FROM THIS GUY)IT HAD NEVER BEEN TOUCHED MECHANICALLY JUST SOME ADD ON PAINT AND TRIM. HE LIED. I HAD TO GET ANOTHER GAS TANK -RUSTED AND LEAKED, UEL FILTER BOWL- LEAKED, FUEL LINE- CRACKED, ARB REPAIRED -COULD STILL USE A BETTER ONE OR OVEHAULED,VERY BASIC CARB- REPAIRED SPARK PLUG WIRE- LOOSE AT MAGNETO. THE BODY IS FAIRLY STRAIGHT NO RUST NOTED BUT SOME BONDO ADDED TO SMOTHE IT OUT ALONG THE BOTTOM. IT HAS THE GENERATOR FOR LIGHTS, I BOUGHT A NEW BELT FOR IT, LEANED,INSPECTED AND REPACKED THE FRONT WHEEL BEARING, E WIRED THE LIGHTS -WIRING WAS ORIGINAL (RECENTLY RESTORED GENE?) AND SPENT TIME CLEANING BUT I'M AT THE END OF MY ROPE ON THIS ONE, T NEEDS MORE BUT IS ALL THERE, 'LL SEND PARTS THAT I TOOK OFF THE SCOOTER WITH IT,I ADDED A STRAIGHT EXHAUST PIPE, ITH SOME WORK AND MORE CLEANING IT CAN BE A VERY NICE SCOOTER-BUT NOT FOR A 74 YEAR OLD. IT DOES RUN--NOW BUT NEEDS HELP. YOU CAN BUILD THIS INTO A GREAT CUSHMAN AND I CAN LOOK AT 3 WHEELERS.
IT WILL BE SOLD TO HIGHEST BIDDER,PERIOD, HIPPING ARRANGEMENTS MADE BY YOU,I BELIEVE THEY WILL NOT SHIP WITH GAS IN THE TANK,BUT I'M GUESSING.
THANKS FOR LOOKING -BID TO OWN IT
