Talking 1964 Bensen B8M

Here are some pictures of the Bensen that I picked up. The 1 H.P. pre-rotor motor with gimble head was priced at 495.00 in the 1968 Bensen catalog. I hope the pictures are not to large or the thread in the wrong place.

I am showing the Bensen off in our local air show here in June. They have never had any Gyro's here at all. No not going to flying this one just yet.
