the cushman you describe is either a 50 series 1946 to 48, or a 60 series 1949 to 1956. the difference in the two is the sides of the body are straight up and down on the 50 series and slant in toward the top on the sixty series. the one with no transmission is a pacemaker. if it has a 2 speed transmission it is a roadking. most of them had a 4 hp engine. some later ones had a 7 hp engine. you can tell the difference in the engine by the fins on the cylinder. the 4 hp has round fins looking down from the top and the 7 hp has big square fins. in the condition you describe i would say $ 700.00 to $1400.00. the title makes it worth alot more. alot of new parts are available from dennis carpenter cushman parts. eagles are worth alot more i'm restoring one now and it ill go for around $5700.00. i have built some vanguard powered eagles from $10,000.00 to $45000.00. if you get hooked on cushmans you can get into serious money. we custom build them from scratch with our own design 4 speed transmission and modified v-twins. they will top 100 mph.

we have a winner. i don't know who it is. i'm deaf as a door knob and could'nt hear. i'm sure it will be announced very soon.

the rally was great, the weather was perfect. food was excellent, and we had a great ending at the banquet. i want to thank my great committee that made it all possible. most of all i want to thank all the folks that attended that made it a great success. this was my last hoorah, and it was great. thanks to don for giving me the honor of putting on this international. snarley bill
