Message	find one of them around anywhere - they have all been replaced by these tin-can aluminum stick scooters with inline skate wheels on them.. I'm looking for a kids scooter that has the 12" wheels with plastic mags and tubed tires.. Waaay back in the day I had one and I put one of my model airplane starter motors on it and a car battery on the stand plate, hacked the handlebars down so I could crouch down sitting on the battery and whiz along.. Only weighing like 70lbs at the time, that little thing got going around 20MPH and would run for a good hour and a half. I always wanted to put a 2-stroke chainsaw engine on it, but lacked the equipment to build it. Gotta take a break from the Z once in a while - I've been going full tilt here for the past few months and it has been wearing me thin... Building insane things like this is just a hobby to keep me sane, LOL. [ ashspecz.com ] [ agpowers@bellsouth.net ] Enthusiasts soon understand each other. --W. Irving. Are you an enthusiast?
