LOL, I know you Joe. You also slammed up the numerous "Cat parts wanted" posts again, so I figured you were on a roll. :laugh:
This is a rare bike to have in Chile. Someone must have brought it down from the US many years ago. Original paint. It's a nice bike to have. Can you get a Tecumseh H30 down there? Harder to find in the US.

), what is the value of the bike in this condition and clean-running?Your rear wheel on the sprocket side is pretty bad. I do not know if you can save your rear wheel. As you know, the wheel comes apart with six bolts. Someone welded on an extra sprocket. You can find those sprockets/hub assembly used sometimes, or try and fix yours. You can find a new brake (Chinese) from Ebay US. It is the 4" model. Most of the other parts can be found right here at OldMiniBikes Warehouse.
It looks like you have the original engine. You need a new carburetor, easy to find, but you might need to do some machine work to that engine. You also need a clutch of course. It will be a challenge, but a decent mechanic or handy man could make it work.

It looks like you have the original paint on it. If this bike was in the US, where there is more interest in ORIGINAL bikes, I would leave it alone.
To be honest, if I were in Chile and being so rare, I would go crazy with paint and chrome. I would not worry about original, because it may be difficult to get every little piece you need, in original form.
THis is your decision. No right or wrong answer, but we will tell you what to do anyway! haha!
