Default Motorized Womens Bike

I saw a really nice womens bike with disc brakes today at a garage sell for $35 and thought about motorizing it but wasn't sure it would work out. My question is, can you put a china girl into a womens bike just as easy as a mens bike?

i have a 50's era girls bike i'm putting a motor on right now. you'll probably have to weld in a mount for the rear of the engine. this one has good tins and the horn still works, also has the spring loaded chrome racks on it. have a round gas tank from an old chain saw i'm going to mount on the rear rack. it's looking good so far.

you still can although the motor would most likely be a bit higher on the frame.. if you could fit it between the 2 tubes, it would work very well..
