Wil-Mac trike kit

Yannick · #1 (**permalink**) 10-09-2011, 11:19 AM

I've just bought a 1980's unbuilt Wil-Mac trike kit which, unfortunately, has no build manual

. Does anyone out there have one that they could scan for me please?
Cheers,
Ian

what is it , you need to know, it is a simple glass body to put on.

Congrats on your purchase. The Wilmac body is fantastic. I have a Wilmac that I built in 1977. It is still going strong.

I built my own frame, gas tanks, engine cage etc. I only purchased the body and trunk from Wilmac.

I do not have an install manual, but I still have all of my drawings and specs for my build that I did on mine. If you need anything let me know (pictures, drawings etc).

Also check ebay. Do a search on wilmac or vw trikes. Sometimes there is a person selling a good copy of the Wilmac manual. I'm hoping to get one myself just to have it with all of my records.

Good luck.
Ride Safe

Mike

OK guys, this type question makes me show my age, but I have a WilMac Assembly Manual that I scanned today into a PDF file. Problem is that I'll never get that file down to a size that this forum will accept as attachment (it's 2MB). (HINT: This forum has grown by leaps and bounds - maybe a tech library might be a good addition). If you will PM me with a direct email address, I'll send it to you. And before you get it, it has no Page 14 (never did) and is not of the highest quality (I only have a photocopy).

Before I go making someone mad, I don't have time to start sending a file of this out to everyone that wants to collect one, so please don't put me on the spot. If someone other than Yannick wants/needs one (i.e., WilmacMike, vwmaniac, and maybe a few more), send me a PM. Also, if there is some host site that we can post this type stuff to and reference it, please let me know.

Have a great day, guys.

Loner,
you still have that Nova trike up for grabs?

If you look at my album on my profile page, the red cruiser with prism flake overlay (blinding in the sun) I have stored and is available. As shown, no engine included. I've got over $8000 in parts, paint, etc. in it (not to mention $3k labor) and have been offering it at what I thought was a deal at $6500. Since we're going into cool weather, I'd like to not have to store it so I'll take the first $5500 and we'll roll it on to your trailer. It comes withl MSO and Bill of Sale for new vehicle registration as a 2011 model. Just needs an engine and a few very minor items.

I can post a few more photos if you're interested.

Morning Loner,
Can you tell me where Harvest,Al. is at? or near big city?

Loner · #9 (**permalink**) 10-12-2011, 10:07 AM

Harvest is a suburb of Huntsville, AL.

Copy of WilMac Assembly Manual sent to Wilmac Mike - still watching for an email address from Yannick or anyone else who needs a copy.

Hi Loner;

If you could send a manual my way it would be appreciated.
I am trying to get my Wilmac registered in another province.
To much paper work in this country.
