Fully & restored National car from all original parts that I have copied as needed from original to this car. The engine is a lever start 1935 Y Briggs & runs well. The lights were imitation that I replace with the correct size from a 1928 Chev parking lights. The Hood Ornament was made by Blackstone & is aluminated .AC Generator supplies the 6 volts.The car has a bevel gear drive & driven up front by a drum that moves up and downfrom the outside lever with the sst ball on topto change direction which gives you forward & reverse. Tires are 12 1/2" with inner tube. I do have all the Manufacturing history to this car as well as history from the second owners which live in upper MI. There granddad bought the car from a furniature store in 1941.The decal & stripe are original & was copied from the body b/4 sand blasting. The color is also correct.I also have those pictures b/4 restoration. There were only 22 of these made. There only 3 that have been restored. The first was in KC which was the original owner & had most of all original literature. His was also done correct with color & stripe. This is my second one, the first one is pictured in the Us Scooter Museum. Mine in the Museum site is listed twice. Under the heading National in that site you can see mine listed with the top painted red over black which was done by the person that bought it from me& was sold by the Mid America auction company. I sold that one to a gentleman in Wis. What is missing to mine now is only the 5 button red seat cover which will be added next week. Payment Terms; Payment to be made in 7 days of auction end. Buyer to pay all shipping cost including the crate if it has to be made. I will help the buyer find a good carrier for shipping.
