Those my friend are some awesome pictures!!! I tried to post them large here and the thread won't let me. They'll be on the old photos thread!

It makes a person wonder how tough it had to be to steer and balance one of those Emblems with the tandem seating system.
With seating off set like that how could a person properly steer one let alone reach for the handle bars

Thor Pictures

While your talking about Old Thor's - I thought you might like a picture of the one I picked up about a year ago now - still in original condition (although the carb is missing - I'm going to use a Hedstrom for the time being)

I won't be restoring this - just getting it up & running
