1982 Cushman Truckster on Patrol
I've mentioned this Cushman Truckster before, but here's a good picture of it in service just last weekend during an outdoor event that my group was providing logistics for (www.nweventservices.org). This Cushman was restored last year and is an awesome vehicle for on site use. The state park's John Deere 6x4 Gator had some serious drivetrain / differential issues and wasn't able to keep up with this older but more reliable Cushman.
Plus this thing is insane to drive. It turns in a >tiny* radius. Seriously fun.
And yes, it has emergency lighting equipment on it just like my other vehicles. :)

Guess im just looking for soemthing to get trash to the dump. We live in a rural area and i recently had a slick road and a phone pole help me turn my moms dakota truck into abstract art. Two axises of fail, spun around going backwards, flipped into the air, hit to the pole, air born and inverted, then i became less air born, but stayed inverted... It was truly mythical levels of fail >.<
Soooo, now i have to find a new way of getting the trash to the dump >.<

You call that old? A friend of mine went to an auction at the salvage department of Arizona State University. The campus had over 30 of the Cushmans that were produced in tha 1960's. He bought two, fixed up one and sold it to do a really trick restoration onthe other. They are the coolest things scince pockets,(or pouches). Thanks for the update.
OK, I'll bite, are you refering to the small service cars the service line workers used to repair/maintain the rails? Those are neat and unfortunatly overlooked. I knew the sales manager of the Barrett-Jackson Collector Car Auction and he had a 1930 or 1932 Cadillac sedan that was converted to "Ride the Rails" It had no steering wheel or drive links in the front axel, and of corse the steel rail-road wheels. An odd contraption indeed. Railroad equipment is heavy on a good day, how do you move your speeder around?
My Fairmont motorcar is only about 900 700 pounds or so. It has a trailer I haul it on. Cloth belt drive from the engine with its twin large flywheels with an idler pully that puts tension on the belt for drive friction.
It's quite the small thing. Model M19
