From what I understand all that it really needed was a new clutch assembly, being that the old one was rusted to the flywheel. Other than that just a carb rebuild and a fresh battery. Another family friend did the paint job and clean up work. He got it from a old farmer down the road (at a steal of a price) that used it to cultivate mums for many many years. Nice piece of local history.

VERY NICE! That sheetmetal is/was in perfect condition too!! That is just something you just don't ever find.....especially on the 100's and 130's (for me).

Also, could you find out where he got that particular set of Miscellaneous Decals? I haven't noticed them for sale anywhere and they don't come with the standard set of Super A or 140 decals. They add a nice original touch.

yea the sheet metal really amazed me on how straight it was. The engine still runs like its brand new and didnt need any internal work after sitting for over 20 years. Just goes to show that this stuff was built to last.
