to Champ or not to Champ......

[David DeWeese]

Thanks Richard and Keith for the reply!

Picked up the other Champ this weekend. Was a 6-hour round trip, but I consider that a fairly 'local' haul for here in Texas.

The second one was a parts donor for the first, but still has potential as a restoration project if someone was really motivated. It is also fairly rot-free except for the battery box. There are no brass data plates or engine tag present on this one. Is there somewhere else to look for identification numbers?

"Bubba" was definitely smoking something strong when he decided to turn his modified front bumper into a muffler on this Champ.

The second one appears to have been disabled for some time. Had two Willard-brand batteries installed... I think they have been out of business since the early 60's.

At least the first Champ I picked up now has a new sun-baked buddy to keep it company, although it doesn't look too willing to play at the moment....

Thanks, David
