You beat me to the punch Mike. They are B & Z's Electra Kings.   I'm not sure yet of the years but I think that the biege one is a 69 and the green 72.  I need some more examining yet.  Nice buy.   Ian.

Electra King sounds more like a busty film starlet!

Hey Al:  Do you mean busted and flimsy?  The windows are busted and the tops are flimsy, but everything is repairable.  And they are little stars.   ;D

They are that. Also not the same so not duplicates but perhaps similar enough to make restoration simpler. A good find.
