Picked up this '56 Mitsubishi C90 Silver Pigeon back inna 70's, rode the scoot 'round town, the hood, had all 3 of me kids 'n me on it chugg'n the streets, local park. Found out that the Shriner's used 'em in their parades an Hawaii had 'em for tourists.
When I constructed my estate on Ohio river bank the kids bailed out and began their search for fortune 'n fame. I covered the Nippon one lunger with a tarp an let it rest in my garage/shop corner.
When I finally gave up the ghost at Alcoa in 2010, I rediscovered the little jewel an completed a restoration which became quite a challenge due to virtually nonexistence of parts. So, I began usin'n Vintage motorcycle items which has worked very well.

Welcome to the forum. I believe you are the first Mitsubishi owner on the forum. This what it looks like? Looks Lambretta-ish.
