I really hope you put wheels on this and get that old engine running. I wish I could find a relic like that ! It deserves to be brought back to life.
WMB ( wild Motor bike Motor ) WMB953015S or 6S Briggs?
That could be also,. did with what you had. Going to move this to DIY as not a Tadpole, LOL............CurtI was wondering if they spun the generator over and held a file against it to hollow out the armature to get more contact on the tire?
Now you need a set of rusty old forks there will be a national shortage. It would be great to see it back on the road even with a paint job. Ingenuity that you won't see much these days.

Classy!I posted this on the Epic thread and forgot to post it here.
Mounted one of the headlight mounts on the Indian Tri Car and put the brass light on it to an idea how they will look. I have longer bolts for the lights and when the light is mounted permanently the bolts will run through some copper gas line to hold the light even to compensate for the shape of the light body.
I purchased the lights from Cool-one Bike Outdoor Store on Aliexpress. It's listed as Retro Bike Copper Light. They are brass. They have some nice brass tail lights as well. Make sure you are ordering either the head light or the tail light. I ordered what I thought were head lights and received tail light and kept them but had to order the head lights. They charged me for tail lights. They use 18650 cells for power. I purchased an inexpensive batter charger to charge them. Batteries were included.
They have cheap switches to turn them on and off. I bought some brass lamp switches and drilled out the holes. The switches roll on and off.
The brackets are on Amazon. They are cast iron shelf brackets. If you doing this there are a lot of choices of brackets. The legs on the brackets are 5".
