Thank you for the Canadian info.

Mamods are awesome fun due to Mamodification

I hope you mod yours as well.

I plan to make a plank bed ( popsicle sticks) with an integrated wooden bench. Perfect for hauling hay.

No holes drilled. Almost all stock parts except for the jackshaft (although I suppose one could use stock shaft also I used brass shaft on rear so I could solder rear end caps on.) So Mamod could actually do a production run of Doodlebugs!

As for power, at first it was so slow, but as the engine run in after sitting for so long (decades??), It really picked up power. I oiled all the shafts with sewing machine oil so it may have taken a bit for that to soak in as well.

With the spare lamps, I'm thinking of painting them black and putting them on TEs.
