    Hey bear found pics yea late 70,s early eighty,s,with the Tecumseh single banger,mechanical brakes,they were a decent stick wouldn't break any speed records but they lasted well,should be a ton of parts out there lots were sold back then,too bad I did a huge clean out awhile ago and tossed out boxes of parts that would have fit that,but if anything turns up on my next purge I will let you know.Cheers N.C.T
