Vehicle Description

1960 Cushman Eagle $5,590

Cousins Everett and Clinton Cushman began building engines in 1901. Early power-plants were branded the Husky. Over the years these engines powered lawn mowers, race boats, plows, pumps and more. But the Cushman Motor Works of Omaha, Nebraska, which came along later in the lives of the Cushman brothers, also established a good reputation by building motor scooters. The first was the famous Auto-Glide model which they started to manufacture in 1937. Then in 1949, Cushman redesigned its 50 series scooter borrowing styling cues from big American touring motorcycles like the Harley-Davidson Duo-Glide. The newly named Cushman Eagle Motorcycle became the firms best seller ever. While Cushmans were fine products in the 1950s, they could not endure competition from Japanese motorcycle manufacturers who brought price and sophistication along with better distribution and marketing. Cushman assembled its last typical consumer type scooter in 1966. This 1960 Cushman is just waiting for you to strike out on a new adventure with original patina and a rusty chain, vintage tires that can hardly hold air. Single solo puts you in command of all mechanical necessities. Stand tall and ride taller, head and shoulders above the competition. Motorcycle includes a free full tank of gas and best wishes.
