Cushman truck

Anyone ever see a cushman truck ? I may be scoring one from work as an scrap asset disposal type of thing , it's in pretty good shape .

I have seen a lot of them. Where we on live on the east coast, a lot of police departments use them in the summer to easily get in and out of tight spots and ride up on the board walk. I bet some of the towns still use them.

I can't recall the pickup but do remember the old Cushman postal trikes.

The pickups are small, not much bigger than a John Deere gator.

Yes, The equipment dealer I worked for about 10 years ago was a cushman dealer. I hated the stupid things. They were very good when they worked, but could be troublesome when they're broke. Depending on age parts can be an issue, so make sure you have a dealer nearby.

We settled on $100 for the Cushman it's in pretty good shape as it has been in the warehouse it's whole life .

Pics when you get it.

Got it home and running / driving the steering shaft is junk there is nearly a 1/2 turn of play in the steering I took it apart and the keyway is worn .

That looks pretty good.

I recall the old postal delivery vehicle with fabric doors in SoCal - probably a 1960's model. I thought that was the coolest job ever. I think they were noisy and stinky even back then.

We scavenged 2 for work, a little tinkering and both run strong and reliable. Parts available on line, both of ours have OMC engines.

I found mine has a broken hub , they want $400 new I found a used one for $25 .

That thing looks fine to play around in.
