To see my 1987 truckster look down in this forum to find "Cushman Truckster Saved From The Forest". I have bought Trucksters in this condition for $200-400. Keep these costs in mind when negotiating the price of this Truckster. A complete new short block is available for $1500 and new cylinders complete with valves are available for $300 each. Parts for them are still available, although getting hard to find and the prices are going up. It's a very reliable motor when maintained properly, but it will most likely need a tear down an re-build.

The motor in these is an OMC 22 hp 2 cylinder air cooled (see cooling air intake slot in driver door). If you buy it expect to have to do major work on the brake system since the DOT 3 brake fluid used in these is alcohol based and it absorbs moisture from the air over time, resulting in the brakes rusting from the inside out. A 3 wheel police vehicle had one number, a 4 wheel had another model number, etc. They made the same models with the same numbers (before the dash) for several years. The 2 speed rear would have been in any vehicle that was used off road and these usually had the PTO as well.
If it had a large trunk box on the back and has 3 wheels, then it was most likely a former meter maid truckster and would have no PTO. Many in this age group had the windshield wiper motor mounted in different positions This one has the motor mounted in the same position as my 1987, so I'm thinking that this one might be an 86-87 Is it a 3 or 4 wheel? If 4 wheel, many had a PTO.
