Did it a number of times delivering newspapers from one of these in 1960-62 period. Ya learn to lift the starter pedal and wiggle it just right to insure that the gears are meshed instead of the major diameter of the two gears resting on top of each other. Takes about a week to lighten up hurting when your foot slams down on the floorboard and turns sideways with all your weight on it.. Edited October 25, 2021 by difrangia 1 Quote Link to comment
jagman Posted October 25, 2021 Report Share Posted October 25, 2021 I have often wished I'd kept mine. I bought it for college transportation from a guy who was in the doodle bug club in town in 60. I ran it for about 3 months and the original engine began to knock. I called him and asked him to look at it and advise me on how to fix it. He asked me to get it to his fathers garage and he would see what could be wrong with it. I called two weeks later to find out what he found. He told me that it was fine and now running well. I found out later that he and his buddies had re-engined it with the larger Cushman motor and a larger centrifical clutch. That hummer would go 55 miles per hour. For the first year in college there was a gas war in town with gas at $014.9/gal. A fill cost me about 25 cents. I later sold it to another freshman (no cars allowed until junior year). 1 Quote Link to comment
