Good luck with your venture!

I thought it was an old Red Man. Uncle had one back when I was in Jr. high. Not sure what year it was made, but had fun riding around on it at his small farm/ranch down south of Dallas. I think he ended up giving it to my cousin before he went off to college in Austin. That thing almost killed me and my cousin more than once one summer. Two kids, a six pack and no brain between them... not a good combination.
