Need Kick Stand for Vintage Nova Mini Bike

#1
I'm looking for a kick stand to pt my vintage nova back together... Maybe the fenders too?

Here's a link to the original sales brochure.

NOVA MINIBIKE

My mini bike has the drum brake which leads me to believe it's a Super Sport and the Deluxe Sport had a friction brake... But mine doesn't have fenders like a Super Sport should have? It doesn't appear looking at the frame that it had any mounting tabs that the fenders would of bolted to either?
So I don't know which it is but I do know I could really use a kick stand to make this sucker complete...

Also if you know where I can get an engine and carb rebuild kit for this that would be great too.

Thank you,

Kevin

You can cut a bicycle kickstand down to length and that works pretty great.. I usually use like three cement blocks.. One for each tire to sit on, then tip the bike to the angle you want it to rest at, then use the third to mark the kickstand for length then chop him up. :hack: It's easier to make it a tiny bit long then trim it down some more, but if ya get it too short you can always slide a piece of tube over it and weld or blot it on.. If ya build 20 or 30 of them and ya get good and practiced up you will start bending little footy pads on the end and stuff... But if a have a bicycle stand floating around they work pretty good. :wink:
