Earlier, about 7 months ago I posted about my 47 basement find Whizzer. It was a Roadmaster with lights, front drum brake & spring front forks. Quenton got the motor & Memory Lane got the hubs & origional spokes & furnished most parts. I done the dissembly and repaint. Paint was lacquer as was the striping, with clear coat after. Memory Lane rebuilt hubs & laced up some new S2's plus mounted nice repo Chinese Goodyear blackwalls- ask for Jerry. Quenton needless to say done the engine. I should recieve the motor Monday & complete the bike in time to take it to Daytona Bike Week. Maybe I'll figure out how to post some before & after pix of the whizzer & add a few shots from Bike Week. Really guys -gals it turned out awesome, but it ain't to look at it will be ridden alot. Think the old Whizzer ad---6 miles fot a penny, still applies ?

He has been riding it and working on the break-in process. I know many of the parts he used in the build, and most often went "1st Class".
I too want to see how it turned out, and would love to see some pictures.
Have fun,

Guys I had a cute short story about this update, very colorful and infomative. I ain't to good on a computer and somehow lost it 2 times. Short version Got Whizzer painted, Quenton & memory Lane came through. I put it together, got it somewhat running, called Quenton several times, eventually got it right, cut my finger tip off
on it and Rode it at Daytona Bikeweek. Long story, pix and youtube link later. My right birdie finger is throbbing. BTW I named her Birdie

I've talked to Harv, he'll hook you up with what you need. Don't ask for a carb kit - out of stock & no one seems to have them. Memory Lane does an awesome job of hub rebuild & spoking- cheap ask fof Jerry .Glad you like my bike, Quenton suggested that I paint it any color that I like, since it had a brush Job on it. Cream & red needless to say - I like--Later
Call Dennis Carpender in NC. He is a Cushman specialist, and may have carburetor kits for the Tillitson ML [ML5B] series. Be careful what you ask for as most Cushmans used the MT series carburetors [MT63, MT55, etc]
Have fun,
