Thanks in advance.

Well, it was a rusted up piece when I got it. Now I just need to rebuild it to "original". I assume it wouldn't be wrong to run the Clinton?

Yeah- losing the fenders, but keeping the # plate. Was thinking of painting the original purple.

no your are not wrong on using a clinton engine,that was one of the engines
used on them,i think they used the clinton modle 498 you could buy the
minibike and i beleve tell the dealer what engine you wanted to use,and
he would supply the correct engine mounting plate. you have a nice one
there,i wish it was here! :thumbsup::thumbsup:
