Hey guys! I am the owner of the penguin, thank you for taking an intrest in it! I will be putting it in the lake or the pond soon, i'm done school in a few more days. I'll post it then. keep looking at the videos! Thanks! Tomas Hammond - YouTube
Hahaha yea, Ive done a lot of work to her. She didn't run when I got her, the key wouldn't even turn, and when we got it too it would fire or give spark. The points had to be filed and replaced, the transmission was an impossible mess. It says in the orignal manual that it is 3 up 1 down, actually it is 1 up 3 down. She was a stumbling block, thats for sure. The motor was a whole other ball of wax. the body was alright, needed buffing and patching around the rear axle. The seats and covers I had made up from photos of the queens royal penguin. Right now I'm looking for new tires all around and have to re-support the rear hitch.
Very Neat Machine! Im glad you are fixing it up and making it new again and even more impressed your trying to keep it as original as possible even down to making reproduction seats for it. Nice Job!
