Bought it in the dark

[rbtp]

Hi All-

This seems like a great site, was happy to come across it!

My son's 12th birthday is coming up and a boy needs a go-kart! Bought this last night in the dark. More warts in the daylight than I thought. Lots horrible welding done to the frame, but the Honda 5.0 started and ran. Torque converter also seemed to work, so those two components are probably worth what I paid. I'm sure I'll be looking for advice along the way to making this a fun kart, so I'm glad you guys are here.

Picture didn't show up so here is a link to it:

No, just a crappy host site, I couldn't get them to load either...

For future reference, you can upload pics straight from your computer or device
