Well I bought one for my husband in the 70’s and it was stolen after he passed away in 2003 and if I could get my hands on the sob that took it HE WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO RIDE IT! Any one comes across one for sale in the Southern Indiana, Louisville Kentucky area write me-I will see to it you get a reward. I have a pretty good idea of the lowlife who took it along with thousands upon thousands of dollars worth of racing equipment, tools, parts and antiques. To steal from me is one thing but to steal from my dead husband is another. Very long but interesing story. There was also a ’60’s era Harley dragbike stolen. Ahhh-he picked me like a chicken while he was trying to buy the property my husband left me and allowed others in to help themselves. No personal relationship involved, I just had to do things “legally” while he didn’t.

Correction for a prior comment….Ken, the senior citizen that owns a Hop Rod, is NOT interested in trying it out. Thank you .

I own a Hop Rod. As a senior citizen I am interested in trying it out. It is in good shape and I would consider selling it if someone is interested in purshasing it.

I remember seeing a feature on either this or a souped-up one (the engine was a lot bigger) in Playboy Magazine, probably in the early 1960’s. Of course, being Playboy, there was a good-looking unclothed girl stepping on to it. There was one good photo showing her shooting into the air–hair flying–what an expression on her face, if you were noticing it!

Yea Hi! Able to jump over a garbage can with the HOP ROD. Gas cylinder w/sparkplug right? Fun, yup.. I tried it back then. It blasts your feet like a sledge hammer, then you try and recover and if you time it just right you can keep going, I remember that. It’s not that easy at first. If your feet arn’t on or slip, it could be launching very dangeriously away, ha-ha. My buddy still has his too. Someone (a daredevil) will enjoy it. cool yes.
