    So the two karts I picked up are in pretty rough shape and going to require some welding and more along the lines of a restorati rather than a rebuild. To be honest the time and work I'm going to put in to the has got me feeling discouraged a bit. Show me some serious before and after shots of...

    Do they have any different character from a clone? Power come in differently from the different head designs or anything ? My first kart as a kid had a 8 horse flathead , probably came off a tiller or something but that thing would scream

    Margay id help , have the serial number

    I hear it's a bandito due to the gusset on the engine rails and seat mount but some knob welded on some cobbled up mess of nerf bars. May try to call them on my lunch break today! I'm guessing a photobucket account would help with pics for this forum?
