[Silly Little Cars] cool old truckster

[B-o-b Gallagher]

Here's is one of the old curved windshield models on CL Portland.  About the 
same price

Compare it to this one that is a little newer and has a flat windshield in 
Seattle

Btw, of the old 2 cylinder air cooled engines there are two versions, the 
18hp (spark plugs on the bottom) and the 22hp (with the spark plugs on the 
top of the cylinders).  Note:  I'm no expert.

Hey, we have goofy old Cushmans (Cushmen?) up here in the Pacific Northwest 
too  :-)
