After seeing this beauty in person I have surmised it is not a 1959
Benly 125 twin. Would have been a nice find at $300.00.
>From the model and serial #s its a late '60s Benly 160 or the baby
Dream. Its not a model I would like to restore. Its missing its
ignition switch ($400.00 on EBay), both tank badges ($?), both side
covers ($?), top of the left side switch cover. The mufflers are shot
and are $400.00 @. I don't think this model nand year would bring
much more than $3000.00 as a restored runner and I can see at least
that in parts and paint and another project that I put a hundred or so
hours out of the goodness of my heart.
Then I could always just get the engine running and unload it on some
other fool wanting to play with it as a losing proposition. Parting
it out could also be very profitable. But I'm trying to down size by
turning the cottage into a house and sell the house.
Then there is the problem of hiding it so Marilyn doesn't see it.
