Well on Friday night me and my buddy went and picked up 2 karts. It was night time which was our first mistake. He was asking 400 for both karts and we talked him down 2 3 and thought we got a smokin deal. That was until yesterday afternoon when we
Unloaded them and saw they weren't in good condition at all.
Kart 1 yerfdog 3200
Little single seater. Came with complete comet 30 with jackshaft and rear tires that held air. Looked in recent condition with a little bent cage from where it looks like he hit a poll.
Bad
Motor toast
No seat
Rear motor cage were motor bolts 2 is toast. Cracked welded re cracked and rotted. Will be a hr job to rebuild the re cage with added strength.
I'll add pictures tonight
Kart 2
manco dingo 388-15?
This one looked a little sketchy to begin with but couldn't complain when IDE driven 50 miles to come look at them and didn't want to leave empty handed. This kart has been crashed, fliped and whatever you could probly do to a kart. But in its defense it did come with a 8hp flathead b&s, complete comet 30, has disk brake conversion and looks like it will be fun to drive when refinished. Probly gonna be a few hrs to get this this back to safe drivable kart
The bad
Crashed
Flipped
Bad welds
Cracked welds
Steering has been shortend and relocated
No seat
Needs new tires
Janky looking
Already took the motor off by the time I took this pict but we will use this as the before pict

Grinded down all the awful welds and got the seat off which was plugged by cement bolts

Got one plug out but the other one is stuck so I need to weld something to it and hopefully get it out
