Ive always wanted one and now I have one. But its mainly for my daughter when she gets old enough to ride. Its a 85 ATC 70 and everything looks original to me. Dosnt run but seems like the pull rope isnt catching inside. can pull on it and it has spring resistance and pulls back in but u cant feel the compression of the motor. I gave $150 for it. Now i have 8 trikes lol. Everyone at work is starting to call me 3 Wheeler Willy :lol:

lol yeah i thought so. i see them selling on craiglist around my area for 4-500 in this condition. so i feel like i got a steal and could easly part it for a lot of money or double or triple it buy selling it. but nah im gonna keep it for me and my little girl.

Yeah, I paid only $75 for mine, but I spent hundreds re-doing the engine. AND, mine isn't really an '85. The engine was swapped out at some point with an older 3-speed. I think you got a good deal.
