The box of parts pictured will be included. The rear disk brakes were custom made using calipers (new) from a Cannondale four-wheeler. The front suspension is the original Earles-type setup that is the proper way to make a three-wheeler steer and handle properly. Combining the strong Cushman design with Honda reliability makes for a potentially awsome ride. These were orignally made by Cushman for extremely reliable, minimum maintenence industrial and utility use and were used by USPS letter carriers for neighborhood delivery in the '50s and '60s. There is no reason it won't be perfectly suitable for fun, errands, and light utility work.
When complete it should be ready for the street. The wiring harness from a 1985 Honda CB450 has been grafted to the original harness so it's ready to be set up with head/tail lights (with hi/lo beam), turn signals, horn, brake lights, starter, etc. The original 7 3/4" wheels have been replaced by 10" aluminum wheels and the tires are street-ready DOT-rated front 130/70-10 and the rear are 205/50-10. It is 250cc and has a five speed transmission with reverse (no-clutch shifting). The engine is from a 1985 Honda Big Red three-wheeler. This '59 Truckster 780 was taken down completely to the frame then sandblased, powdercoated black, and then reassembled using new bolts (many stainless), seals, gaskets, and bearings. I have retired and I need room for other projects. I have had this project for a few years but now my needs have changed and it should go to a new owner who will complete and use it. It has a clean Ohio title ready to be signed over to the new owner. This is a project that needs to be finished and doesn't currently run. I have gotten a few questions about this in the last week or two so I thought I'd list it again.
