It looks like the neck wedge failed and they then drilled the frame to put a bolt through to hold the neck on. Oops! Wheel won't turn with bolt through neck and frame. :oops: Plan B...drill the top nut. :p Redneck fix is in! Gary
 
Sweet find, I don't think it's a 52 though. They used a different chainguard decal through at least 1957, the part that says "Wasp" was black & gold. I know 1959-61 had the decal like yours. Same bike overall anyway! -Adam
 
pretty rad find on the ghostbusters ambulance. I've found a few of those but they are generally missing the fins or doors.
 
On the Ambulance the driver side door is missing but it has a working winch that drops out the back and when you slide the exhaust pipes over and roll it I draws it in the back I also got the stay puff marshmellow guy from the same place too

And with my wasp when I ran the serialnumber it tells me that it 9/11/52 this is the number that's on it e131208 I had my buddy run it and he came up with 5/15/61 so I'm not sure thanks for the feed back on it thou
 
Did you find that in Michigan? The sticker on the rear fender is from "Sandy Pines Resort" here in West Michigan. Here's the site with that logo. Brian. You must be Rob's buddy from GH.
