TACO T100 MINIBIKE 1969 CAT BONANZA RUPP

NICELY RESTORED ORIGINAL 1969 TACO T100 MINIBIKE. REBUILT FROM MOSTLY ORIGINAL TACO PARTS. THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST SOUGHT AFTER MINIBIKES AROUND. I PURCHASED IT A NUMBER OF YEARS AGO AS A BASIC BASKET CASE WITHOUT AN ENGINE. I ACQUIRED PARTS FOR IT TO REBUILD AS I FOUND THEM. THE BIKE WAS NICE AND STRAIGHT WITH NO CRACKS BENDS OR RE-WELDS WHEN I GOT IT. I TRIED TO USE PARTS THAT WERE PERIOD CORRECT DURING THE RESTORATION. THE ENGINE IS A 70'S VINTAGE LOW USE BRIGGS & STRATTEN 5HP THAT I REBUILT TO STOCK SPECS. IT RUNS VERY NICE. ALTHOUGH I AM NOT A PROFESSIONAL RESTORER, HE BIKE CAME OUT PRETTY SHARP! IT IS NOT MUSEUM QUALITY BUT I WOULD SAY FOR A 46 YEAR OLD BIKE PRETTY CLOSE! THE SERIAL NUMBER ON THE FRAME IS 9H091. THE 9H PART IS CERTAIN THE OTHER NUMBERS ARE SOMEWHAT HARDER TO READ THIS WOULD MAKE SOMEONE A NICE CHRISTMAS GIFT! HERE IS A LIST OF THE PARTS USED DURING ASSEMBLY.ORIGINAL TACO:FRAME, ORKS,SHOCKS SPRINGS, EAR WHEEL,BRAKE,CLUTCH COVER,REAR TIRE,THROTTLE, ND ALTHOUGH NOT ORIGINAL TO THIS BIKE, HE ENGINE TOO!AFTERMARKET REPRODUCTION:SEAT, RONT WHEEL, RONT TIRE (CARLISLE NON INDIAN HEAD),FOOT PEGS, LUTCH(COMET 400 SERIES),ALL NEW BEARINGS,CHAIN,CABLES,BRACKETS, SST.

WHEN I HAD THE SEAT MADE, HAD IT MADE 1 INCH TALLER TO ACCOMMODATE OLDER RIDERS.
