Description
Designed to be dropped by parachute with Army Airborne troops, the Cushman M53 Scooter became known as the Cushman Airborne. Other models were used on military bases for messenger service. The most successful model of Cushman scooter, the Eagle, was in production approximately 16 years. It resembled a motorcycle with its exposed engine and top tank. Other Cushman models, like the post-war "turtle back" Model 50 and 60, or the economy Highlander, used a step-through design common for scooters. The step-through design and ease of operation made it popular with men and women alike.
- Unassembled, unpainted plastic model kit. Tools, glue and paints are sold separately.
- Highly detailed. Parts are plastic textured to resemble other materials.
