Description
These are original uncrashed and unmolested Shriner Indianapolis 500 Cars made by Crue-Cut Manufacturing in 1964, Crue-Cut made many of the Shriner cars from that era. These have the 6hp Tecumseh original motors, compression is 100psi, they both dribble a little oil. I have added less than 1/4 quart in 3 years of ownership. Carbs were replaced, I have the originals. They were made for the Battle Creek Michigan Saladin Temple. I have replace the tires as needed, the rubber is excellent all around on both. The shrouds around the engines are clones made from molds of the original which had cracks. The original and inferior shroud that came with them is included. It goes 25-30 mph and is a blast to drive. These are NOT KID sized. I'm short (5'6") and can barely reach the pedals. THESE ARE FOR GROWN UPS! For safety's sake I added a plunger kill switch that is easy to punch if trouble arises. The #23 car likes shot of ether to start, number 20 does not. I've been as honest and as descriptive as possible about the cars, there is no substitute for a personal inspection if you are considering purchasing.Now the fun part. These are a BLAST to drive especially when you have friends around that like to have fun. Time for these toys to find a loving home. I am not a Shriner, I contacted the Saladin Temple to see if they would have any issues if I were to bring them to a local parade to entertain the kids. They had no issues with that idea and support anything that generates interest in the Shriners. Covid parade cancellations prevented me using them for this purpose. Any local parade would welcome it.
Buyer will need to arrange their own shipping of their choice or pick them up. I am selling TWO of these cars the price is 00for BOTH.
