1976 Mongoose Motomag
1976 Mongoose Motomag
"shorty goose" w/patent pending motomags I's
Here's a goose that I've been scrounging here and there, off and on to try to piece back together in remembrance of my '76 shorty goose I had as a kid.
Man did I beat the heck out of it (the original one) I had back in the day!
This goose is still not complete as you see in the pics, but still needing a few more items to be ridable.
Frame: Mongoose, nickle plated '76 "shorty"
Forks: unstamped Ashtubala type, dated '76
Headset: unstamped
Goose neck: unstamped Ashtubala, dated '76
Handle bars: Mongoose
Grips: Waffle style
Cranks: unstamped Ashtubala, dated '76
BB hardware: unstamped
Sprocket: 3 arrows
Pedals: n/a
Seat: n/a
Seat post: n/a
Seat clamp: unstamped
Wheels: Motomags I's, simi cal's w/pat pending
Tires:
Wanted:
Parts not seen in the pictures above.
I'd like to stick to 76-77 era parts: for the Rattrap Pedals, Mongoose seat, Mongoose seat post and chain.
Thanks for lookin' and any help on parts,
Johnny G.
I'm looking for the following frames, frame & forks or completes by BMX products:
MotoTrac (nickle or chrome), Racer-X or a Super-X (with the double gussets preferred).
Thanks
