    $750 atc 70

    My daughter took these pics today. She said they want $750 for it . Is it worth that much? I guess at a quarter a ride you could get your money back.

    I remember seeing this years ago. I was always like why do I want to ride that when I can take a bike for a run when we get home dad. But hey ya, I'd buy one now. Have to open up the motor too. lol.

    considering everything on that engine looks mint...and the price that that 70 engine just sold for on ebay....yeah. it's worth 750... strictly from a monetary standpoint.

    It's only worth what you want to pay for it. It's probably in one of those consignment places. You need to find the owner, sometimes they will bargain a little. That is the first 70 I've ever seen like that as long as I can remember. I always saw trizinger mounted on those rides, but never 70s. It would be kind of kool though.

    I would buy that, take the 70 back off, make it a runner, and sell the bottom 'machine' to get some $$ back. I would be willing to bet that its missing most of the engine internals though.

    I wonder how many little kids rode that thing. I wonder how many went on to own a trike later in life? My daughter was so excited that she called me as soon as she saw it. I told her to get some pics while she was there. I personally have never seen a Honda 70 on one of those things either. I've only seen zingers and a zuki. I would love to buy it but I really don't have any place to put it.
    I am rebuilding a 70 right now but I already have everything bought for mine that I'll need. It looks like all of the cables, hoses, pull start, chain and probably exhaust are missing. I also noticed that all of the paint is worn off of the top of the pull start housing. Probably from all of the little kids putting their feet up there and bouncing up and down on the seat and making engine noises like they were really riding it. HaHa maybe it would be good to have around in the winter when it's too ugly out to go riding. I may go check it out just to see what is really there. It's in an antique mall of all places.

    Wonder if the motor has guts in it?

    I've never seen a Honda on one of those. I remember seeing blue and yellow ones in front of K-Marts and stuff when I was little.
