Hey KK Kid,
"That was my actual bike, my dad bought for me when I was 10years old back in 1971. JC Penney had an Auto Center back then and sold all kinds of Minibikes and GoKarts. That picture is what the bike looked like new, it had a 3.5hp B&S motor. It had a cut off switch on the plate in front of the seat. It was a great ride and I would love to find one, but highly unlikely.
Thanks for the props dude, by the way I am a 49 yr old chick

"I bought the lil' Indian as a kit and here it is shortly after it's trial run. The fenders and paint were soon to follow. It was first painted in R&M laquer and hand rubbed to a brite shine. The color was a customed mixed to a red/purple. Both myself and Jim on the right have been life long friends and we have graduated to Harleys..."
