I would love to see a pic of it with white letter tires and no hubcaps. [/ QUOTE ] Doing a 50-foot burnout. Isn't anyone going to start a rant about the cowl tag rivets? (Just kidding.) Redlines look great on black, dog-dish capped cars.  (Two thumbs UP.)

Re: March '05 Feature Car
Frank,
-----I dont know how many guys can say they had one of those Doodlebugs back in the day but I did! My dad had a red Cushman "Eagle and he got me a red Doodlebug. I dont think it was new and I have absolutely no idea what happened to it. We must have looked goofier than hell riding around together. Yours is the nicest I have ever seen by far. Where could a guy find one of those bad-boys? I think Id like to find another one..............Bill S

Re: March '05 Feature Car
Bob,
It's a '47 Hiawatha "Doodle Bug". Built by Beam Manufacturing in Webster City, IA. They made them in standard and super models with Briggs or Clinton 1.5 hp engines. This one is a standard with a Briggs. I brought it home in a box full of rusty junk, it was OK though 'cause I told Barb it was her Valentines present. I guess that means its hers. The coolest thing is on the standard, the throttle and brake are on one lever. Squeeze for brake and let it go for full throttle. OSHA and lawyers love it. They bring $3 to 5 grand restored.
