Introductions / Old Koot who loves to work on and restore anything old, animate and inanimate
« on: September 09, 2016, 01:17:56 PM »
When I was a teenager I owned a Simplex Automatic Scooter and was laughed at by the Cushman kids in town.
I started a Cushman project 10 years ago but was never able to forget my Simplex and eventually the Cushman was sold to pursue another Simplex.
I restore old cars/hot rods and restore antique gas pumps to feed my addiction. Truthfully I have too few years and too many projects.
I want to purchase a late 50's Servi-cyle Automatic.
Doesn't have to be museum quality as it will not be a garage queen. I do prefer a running example or needing some renewal and minor engine repair. Cosmetics is not a big problem for me, older restorations or patina models are terrific. I will even consider modified if engine is old and interesting. Would like to find one where I could drive to inspect and purchase but not a deal killer.
thank you
Larry
