New life for an old scooter.


The big red scooter has just had an engine swap. The old engine was getting feeble, so I replaced it with a rebuilt engine. This was my first Cushman. It's a 1947 model that I bought in 1993. My dream that dates clear back to the late 1940's was a little slow in coming true. I now have a dozen scooters, seven of them Cushmans.

The top picture shows the scooter with the body off and the engine in place.
