Survivor 1973 MTD Mud Bug Trike

[Jamie1972]

Just picked up this nice orig. 73 MTD Mud Bug over the weekend.
With orig. 8hp Tecumseh that fires and runs great!

Orig. Owners Manual is a nice bonus.!

Missing only the torque converter belt (just came in from gokartgallaxy.com)
Thanks Randy! :thumbsup:

And the seat. Big thanks to kccarkid!:thumbsup:
(Your copy is on its way!)

Can't wait to clean her up and ride!

Jamie1972 I guess your now hooked for life and that is not a bad thing. I have never owned a trike with rear tires like yours.

I have the same one but not in that condition. What size motor is that? What is the front wheel size? Is it just a regular MTD front wheel? Mine came with a 3.5 Tec and a steel wheel in front. I have collected two MTD front wheels though. I am hoping I did the right thing! Lol

8hp Tecumseh. Orig.
