New to me Cushman 400

[mr2nr]

Just picked this guy up and always wanted one since I seen one. No data plate but I'd guess it's a later year72-74. I've def got plans. First a tear down and powdercoat as much as I can. I'd like to swap out the steering wheel and maybe try and go to 10" wheels with lower profile tires. When the batteries give out I'll be going lithium. Anybody got an updated Cushman like this and tips and tricks.

Today it started acting like the speed controller/coils died as it just goes full blast or nothing. Thanks for any help from any other original Cushman enthusiest.

Here’s my 74 with 10s. Going to have to order spacers since cushman bolt pattern is different from all others.
