Looking good. Like the name. I like the Honda too, IMHO the best motor for the Ty. What year? I would have said a 75 but the motor mount looks later.

She's a 1974, and in pretty much original condition.
That little 2HP Honda Four with long shaft is perfect for the Typhoon; very reliable and fuel-efficient, too.
