Here is my problem, my belt broke, shreded actually, so now I need to remove my varriator and clutch housing to clean them out. I have tried using a strap wrench to keep the varriator and clutch from moving while I tried to remove the nuts keeping them on, but, I just ended up breaking the strap wrenches. I know that some people use impact wrenches to remove these parts. How does this work? That is do you still need to hold the varriatior or clutch housing still when using the impact wrench. And, would this impact wrench be sufficient? www.harborfreight.com/12-volt-1-2-half-inch-emergency-impact-wrench-92349.html

That "Briggs and Stratton looks familiar. It looks like the Smith Motor Wheel, but with a custom built frame rather than being attached to a regular bicycle.

The forks look bent. How is the frame? It may not be salvageable, making it a "parts bike."

Come on. All you need is a good set of knobby tires and that road will be passable. ;D

For $300.00 I do not think you can go too far wrong. At worst, you will have to part it out and make some money selling the parts.

The wheels of the scooter are in old style metal loops (the type usually used for dirt bikes) that were originally designed to fit on a steel bumper. These loops were bolted into the various pieces of wood, and the wood was strapped to the bumper using ratchet straps.
This is an odd combination that I will never use again, but it worked this one time.
Oh yes. I lifted the front wheel into one of the loops and then lifted the rear wheel into the other loop. Not too difficult since you only need to lift half the bike at a time. The front wheel is lifted up with it turned at an angle, so the bike does not need to be parallel with the bumper when the front is lifted on, and the rear can be swung into place when need be.
As a side note, the scooter tires are wider than dirt bike tires and they wedged into the metal loops making them hard to remove.
