As soon as I saw this, I thought it was cool. I really need to stay away from these basket cases....but it just said 'save me'.
Friend gave this to me; an early 70's (we think) Montgomery Ward 450SS by Benelli, appears to be a scrambler. It is a 50cc (maybe 65cc) with a proper 4 speed transmission, neat vented front brake. Apparently, these were imported, branded and sold by the department store here, but sole as Benelli's elsewhere.
It is complete, lots of parts and spares in boxes, but complete. It will be fun for riding around the lake house and local trails.
Time to do some research, remember my 2 stroke skills and learn some Italian. Anyone here know anything about these or similar??
