Thanks to all of you for the nice responses.
I felt kinda like it was a Clown car too when Driving it. Or a bear on a Tricycle! According to the German Heritage of these, that is part of it... A full grown man on a Tiny vehicle.

I will put together a resource list soon.
It was as simple as anything to build
and really not too much money,
I spread the expense across 8 months.

I was thinking a couple of Shiny Pennies!
Give ya my 2 cents!

still needs a kill switch, and 1/2 copper for the brake lever too.

Penny's would look cool all polished up. Home depot door bell buttons work for cheap kill switches. As a bonus they flush mount to any flat surface. Just drill a 1/2" hole and pop it in.

I love the Door bell button Kill switches!
I have 1 kart with one. But I got another one for my other kart... and because it was "lighted" it would not work!
Now I cant find a non lighted 1/2" round doorbell button!

Sweet machine. I dig copper. Reminds me of my special water purification device. Without much effort, you could run yer machine on my special water.

YES I am Joking.
With all the other work you did on this. when did you find tyme to go out and trap a little nauga for the seat cover?
I had plenty of time. While I was saving money between buying parts.

Actually I think I documented the trip to the Fabric store here,
I was glad I made the wife come along cause every other male in the store... well.... They were not playing on our team if you know what I mean! :ack2: lol
