Mewbie Needs help Identifying two new mini bikes.

[borracho]

Thank you for your time, I came across these two Minis and picked them up, I am wanting to order some parts but do not know any make or model. The first one has a new motor, but still needs odd and ends such as kick stand and a brake kit.



the second is a bigger tire bike with a tecumseh 3.5 hp motor, it'll need a pull start but will probably be swapped with a new engine.

If anyone recognizes these bikes and knows a make/model that would get me started I would appreciate it. Secondly, what do you guys think that they are worth. I am just curious if I got a good deal or not.


Thank you for your time.

Red is modified Fox Campus.

The other red is a Manco Thunderbird.

What kick start? The first red one. The Fox Campus...
They didn't come with one.
Brakes were a Bendix drum brake.
And good luck finding fenders. Took me two years and lots of begging.

wow, that was fast. I really appreciate it. The Fox Campus has a kick stand under the bike but the sring is busted. I also need the brake cable kit, since this one is frayed. I want another chrome fender, this one is broken on the tab.

Thanks again buckeye, any idea on years these were made?

the guy I bought it from said it was a '57
