I started out with a Huber that had been sitting for 32 years, I'm about 80 percent finished. I have another one for parts, let me know what you need, maybe I can help.

hi tim were are you in ny, im 80 miles south of buffalo.. i really need a motor. i have a huber that looks just like yours, without the cab.i paid to get head rebuilt and pistons and rings and all new bearings. fella died before he put oil pan back on and started it. son lost building after his passing.. and it got moved outside under tarp and i just retrieved it before everything came up missing. so far what i see is the pan is off no exhaust manifold .or carb and i think mabee the govenor is partialy gone no exhuast or gas tank. i almost need a parts book to tell whats missing. no idea on year of motor or machine to even buy a book . there is so many series. my email is bone65200214733@yahoo.com if ya sent me your email mabee i could send ya a few pics of motor and you could tell me what im missing. the guys son says he has all the parts for it but has had his feet cut off, and cant get around right now to look for me. i dought if that happens anyway, he is a drunk. hard to find a guy to work on hercules motors up my way. i can build a 7 sec 1/4 mile dragbike ,and have several of them but ithink im over my head unless i repower it with a differant motor and tranny. i cant figure how to post a pic...steve
