1957 Cushman Eagle Scooter W/Sidecar

This 1957 Cushman Eagle scooter and sidecar combination has been completely restored — and then dolled up to the max with chrome-plated accessories and dealer add-on goodies. Though cost-conscious Cushman product planners couldn’t afford standard-equipment chromed parts back in 1957, the builder of this impressive little rig went “hog wild” with eye candy consisting of chromed wheels, wide white wall tires, extensive pinstriping and numerous dealer add-on goodies, including a vintage Harley Davidson coin holder, Cushman fork fairing, Cushman odometer and speedometer, oil bath air filter and K.D. Lamp Co. Scoot-Lite headlight. The 318-cc Cushman Husky 4-stroke single cylinder engine runs well and has plenty of power to propel two riders all day long.
