@AmFlyer posted:Hmmm, the Gilbert 370 with the link coupler bars was not made with traction tires. Several possibilities, it was a 371 with KC's and traction tires (PullMor), it was a 370 shell on a KC chassis, or the trucks were modified by a prior owner.
Tom,
My 370 was converted by a factor authorized service center (Keswick Cycle). I think it was something ACG was offering after the Knuckles came out. I was just a wee lad then but our lumpy track work made the link coupler bars almost useless. I remember well when the 370 came home with knuckle couplers... it was too cool. Must have been around '53 or '54. Still have it, thought my brother painted it black and orange and added Wabash decals.
