My S3T is in excellent condition, especially when you consider where it has been throughout the country over the years. It looks as good as the day I purchased it, hopefully it will run too once I get everything back together.

One problem is the seat latch. If you review the pictures here you can clearly see how the pin has dropped down inside the lock. I have no idea HOW to fix this problem. Any help would be appreciated. Purchasing a new one is fine with me as long as it works as it should.

At least your arm is still attached, mine fell off about a year after I bought it. It was too torn up on the brass pin to reuse. I just figure most people wouldn't know how to remove the seat anyway.

Have you tried a locksmith? I bet that a circlip slipped or something.

Hi Mike,

Nope ... I thought there was a fix for this but it has been so long ... I have forgotten about it. Just thought some of the old tube frame guys would know.
