Got a delivery today
 

Original owner Original with a pull start.5 digit serial number, 19812.
body and tin are in great shape, missing the ignition switch,emblem, it is a keeper.
just gotta get it running then give it a bath.

Nice pickup Lew!:beerchug:

Nice find lew, tire chains even.:beer2::biggrin2:

No wheel weights? LOL Nice find bud! :beerchug:

I agree.:biggrin2:

Very nice Lew!! I have a single pole key switch but it's not the original one. I got a NOS key switch for my pull start from Patton.

Thanks guys,
Martin, the wires are still in the dash, one is from the mag the other is attached to the dash tower.
Did these come from the factory with the holes for a push button starter?
My 72 is not here to see how it is connected.

Very nice Lew. Would you explain about the "delivery"? I'm curious, was it local?

Free delivery as the owner was coming from his summer home in PA to nj and was passin' by any way...so he brought it with him.I gave him some 184 low-boy literature for his time.He has a few...

Lew, the dash tower on the 3 digit I had did not have a hole for the push button starter nor for the choke. I don't know if this was an "early" thing or what

Nice score Lew! 4 digit and pull start! Hope it starts quick, or you'll get tired. :biggrin2:

cleaned up around the serial #,turns out to be a 5 digit ,I can make it a 4 digit.heheheh...still a keeper.

Martin.
The extra holes in the dash look like no push button switch or choke were ever mounted on the dash tower.Must be a ealy thing on yours...

That was nice of you lew, you took care of me with literature too hehe, u also took care of our $$.:biggrin2:

what Nick said

Lol lew.:biggrin2:

Still a 61 Lew?:bigthink:

You got a nice gig going when you get people to deliver them to your doorstep. Now if only I can figure out how to do that!:bigthink: Great looking original and worth keeping just as she is! Glad you found it.

Congrats on the O, Lew!

Congrats on the pull start! No deck or plow to go with those chains?

Nice pull start Lew. Now you need to have Nick come over and learn how to start it. Let him pull and pull and pull.............................................. ...Then turn on the gas......:biggrin2:

Nice "O". :beerchug:

Lol josh good one.:biggrin2:

:ExtremeFunny::High5:

A pastor at a church I belonged to told us a story once; "i went to go start my rototiller (he was big into gardening) and I yanked and yanked and couldn't get it to go, then realized the gas was off." it still makes me laugh thinking about it to this day.

Nice score on the "O" Lew:beerchug:

Man you guys are hard on Nick. :biggrin2:

Not me,I like Nick,

Did some work on the motor today,fixed the missing bolt on the bearing plate :BangPC:, cleaned up the oily mess it left.changed out the wiring for the points and magneto.
