I haven't posted here since back in May, so here is my June post.
I have been busy in my scooter shop. The 1946 Civilian Airborne model 53A Cushman is completely disassembled, but needs sandblasting and paint. The engine is in the hands of a professional rebuilder. If the engine is ready before the scooter, I will likely install it in my 1947 Cushman model 52. That way I can enjoy riding that one, and maybe take it's original engine to be rebuilt.
In the meantime, I have an order in for a new carburetor for my 1982 Honda C70 Passport. A carburetor transplant seems like the only way to save it.
I have a line on some mopeds, but we're are still haggling price. It would be nice to have something to trade at the Hiawassee, Georgia meet in September.
In the meantime, keep checking in at http://www.southeasterncushmanclub.com where they have all of those pictures of vintage Cushmans.
