Wow, where has the time gone??? Haven't been on this site in quite a while. Well, I've been bitten buy the Cushman motor scooter bug (I think the bite is getting infected). I still have my '52 D2. I take the D2 to a few local shows and bring an old Cushman scooter along. After unloading the Cat, I go park the truck & trailer and then ride the Cushman back into the show. Well, I restored that old scooter last year and, well, the rest is a mystery.

This is my 1959 Cushman Eagle.

Still trying to procure enough ambition to restore the Fenders and Seat Tank for my D2. The brand-new Hahn seat is still in the box, waiting for me to get my butt in gear.

I'm also still looking for a good Hydraulic pump and Cylinders for my Toolbar Dozer. Also need front track guards (yea, I know. So does everyone else...take a number and wait😆:laugh😊.

Man, I always wanted one of those-the super eagle was the coolest thing in Jr. High when I was there...at that time, you could get a scooter license in Colorado at 14. The limit was 5 HP I think, so Cushman put a restrictor plate in the manifold gasket...you can guess how long those stayed in...I had an older model, that had the fiberglas rear fender/seat, don't even remember the model. It wasn't so cool, it didn't have the 2-speed trans! I later found some old 3-speed trans, put it in the Cushman & made it into a Tote-Gote type thing...
