I think Top of the Line has a picture of one of those old models. It is amazing they have been around this long.

Thanks for posting this. I'm on the lookout for a vintage Cyclo, but I dunno if this is the one...I'm *really* looking for the one with the more elaborate ID plate and this one also looks like it'd maybe lose a lot of originality by the time I had it rebuilt to the point of being functional.

Still, I'll be keeping an eye on it, so thanks again for the heads-up.

Accumulator,

I'll try to remember to send you pics of my old Cyclo. I have no idea how old it is, but it has the metal handle (heavy thing - built like a tank). Currently, the cord is shorted out, but a friend is looking at that for me this weekend. AFAIK, everything else works fine (at least, it did before the cord went) . . . I thought I'd keep it as backup, and for those details when I'm teaching/have help, but if you've been looking for an "antique", and this one fits the bill, I'm not that attached to it.

Tort
