Wil-Mac trike kit

[Yannick]

I've just bought a 1980's unbuilt Wil-Mac trike kit which, unfortunately, has no build manual :Shrug:. Does anyone out there have one that they could scan for me please?
Cheers,
Ian

what is it , you need to know, it is a simple glass body to put on.

 

[WilmacMike]

Congrats on your purchase. The Wilmac body is fantastic. I have a Wilmac that I built in 1977. It is still going strong.

I built my own frame, gas tanks, engine cage etc. I only purchased the body and trunk from Wilmac.

I do not have an install manual, but I still have all of my drawings and specs for my build that I did on mine. If you need anything let me know (pictures, drawings etc).

Also check ebay. Do a search on wilmac or vw trikes. Sometimes there is a person selling a good copy of the Wilmac manual. I'm hoping to get one myself just to have it with all of my records.

Good luck.
Ride Safe

OK guys, this type question makes me show my age, but I have a WilMac Assembly Manual that I scanned today into a PDF file. Problem is that I'll never get that file down to a size that this forum will accept as attachment (it's 2MB). (HINT: This forum has grown by leaps and bounds - maybe a tech library might be a good addition). If you will PM me with a direct email address, I'll send it to you. And before you get it, it has no Page 14 (never did) and is not of the highest quality (I only have a photocopy).

Before I go making someone mad, I don't have time to start sending a file of this out to everyone that wants to collect one, so please don't put me on the spot. If someone other than Yannick wants/needs one (i.e., WilmacMike, vwmaniac, and maybe a few more), send me a PM. Also, if there is some host site that we can post this type stuff to and reference it, please let me know.

Have a great day, guys.

Loner,<br />
you still have that Nova trike up for grabs?

 

[Loner]

If you look at my album on my profile page, the red cruiser with prism flake overlay (blinding in the sun) I have stored and is available. As shown, no engine included. I've got over $8000 in parts, paint, etc. in it (not to mention $3k labor) and have been offering it at what I thought was a deal at $6500. Since we're going into cool weather, I'd like to not have to store it so I'll take the first $5500 and we'll roll it on to your trailer. It comes withl MSO and Bill of Sale for new vehicle registration as a 2011 model. Just needs an engine and a few very minor items.

I can post a few more photos if you're interested.

That is a great deal, I'll see what I can get together[money wise]

 

[vwmaniac]

Morning Loner,
Can you tell me where Harvest,Al. is at? or near big city?

 

[Loner]

Harvest is a suburb of Huntsville, AL.

Copy of WilMac Assembly Manual sent to Wilmac Mike - still watching for an email address from Yannick or anyone else who needs a copy.

Hi Loner;

If you could send a manual my way it would be appreciated.
I am trying to get my Wilmac registered in another province.
To much paper work in this country.

hello Loner,

I know you will not sent everyone a copy of the assembly manual, but I also bought a wilmac trike kit in the Netherlands and I can't get it on the road because they want drawings and manual of the trike to see if this trike really is a wilmac trike.
They are very stupid here, they have testings results and everything about wilmac trikes but they want more info. PLease will you send me a copy of it, to complete my trike, and that can get it on the road legaly.

greetings
Chris visser.

Welcome aboard Chris!

I think you'll find this forum to be a veritable cornucopia of information and knowledge in all things trike. Some of these guys (and gals) have forgotten more than most of us will ever know, myself included! I know I've learned a ton here. All you have to do is ask!

Ride safe!

P.S. POST LOTSA PICS!!

Hey Rick.. Thanks for the kind words ThumbUp. I do have a copy of the manual Loner has, just might take some time to find where I stored it at.

[Loner]

OK, everyone who currently needs a copy of the Wilmac manual (hey, no collectors, please) when I sent a couple out many months ago, please PM me with an email address. I'll try to send an email with the manual as attachment. Please allow me a few days to find my historic files with that manual.

Thanks.

Thanks for the Reply.

I think it will succeed, because If i do a couple of small replies, i'm there.

Hello Loner,

thanks for helping me out.
After I get the post from you, I can try to get the trike trough the MOT, and hope I can drive it.

greetings
Chris

 

[Muddy_udders]

I can host the PDF online and put a link here.
If interested let me know, I would just need a copy.
I don't own a Wil-Mac just trying to help.

[Loner]

PM me an email address (outside the forum) and I'll send the file for the WilMac manual as an attachment.

I believe this will make post #5 so I should be able to PM.

 

[Loner]

Re: Wil-Mac trike kit NEED MANUAL

Hi
I just joined this forum because I found out there is a wealth of knowledge here not only about the VW Wilmac trike I just acquired but about VW conversions in general. I see by this thread that there is a Wilmac manual available to those who ask (Politely) and are trying to discover how this thing was assembled. It's reqistered here in Florida as a 1973 VW motorcycle. I'm trying to trace it back to the first reqistration to find out what year it was built but with little luck so far (Government bureaucrocy). Is there anyway to identify the year? I can't find any numbers on the body and the frame is in the process of cleaning. I hope to post pictures as I go along. If anyone can help with the manual please let me know.


Thanks

Ron
