I have recently been given this "alsport tri sport" and would like to know what it is offically named and the year it was made. I feel stupid talking to someone about something I don't even know the name of. :shrug:
I have looked for information on these vehicles but haven't found much about them or pictures of ones that look like mine. This is the way I recived it so I have no information about the original engine.

From your pics, it looks like a trisport TS frame but not a TS body. I'm not sure what you are asking.but yes the RTS series had seperate fenders.

Locking down the year is very hard. Pre 73 as they went to suspensions all around about then. As to the name, well that to is hard as it depends what engine it had originally

After a second look, gumpit may be correct. I would say TS-50 styled body, no front suspension, 70 or 71 maybe. Probably had a 5hp.
Wow it has a tow hitch mount on it.

Ah thanks for the picture, i do belive also it is that one, and also the body does have a tri-sport decal on the side.

Well all of this is enough to make me happy :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :biggrin:

Also could anyone possibly guide me to a post/place on tips for the repair of the body, i do have fiberglass resin/matting but i don't know really how to get it to go the way i want i to make the body look original, and i don't want to make a complete mould.

Use something to help form the shape. Metal.screening will work. Just tape it in place and glass over it. do a little at a time so you can build it up to the form you want
