nice! might drive up to madison and pick it up actually

 

[WI_Chopper]

yeah, its in sun prarie which is right next to madison, only thing is it has a briggs engine instead of a tecumseh...but briggs are much better and start much easier. Have fun with it, as I would if I could afford it

[WI_Chopper]

[crappyballer]

[anderkart]

I'd expect a deal like that to be sold and gone within an hour of being posted.

 

[crappyballer]

Dam, your dig-in up some great deals lately.

that thing is dope, too bad its not a live axel

actually if ur talking about the 90 dollar kart it is live, or at least it looks that way, im hoping the axle is 1" so i can swap all my good stuff off my other kart onto this one =)

 

[solomon]

so did u pick it up?

 

[crappyballer]

yea i got it ill post pics later tonight when i get home. well its not much to look at but the motor has had the governor removed and has some performance stickers on it. the guy says it was his brothers old racing kart and this guy had to be in his 50s. so its ancient, has a briggs 5hp magnetron motor. the carb is actually full of dirt and mud he said it has been stored in a barn for the past 4 years. 2 of the rims are cracked, but other than that it looks alright gonna take some work but it should be fun. definatley live axle as well.
