I think its a GO kart? maybe. Hard to tell with it mounted on the wall like that.

If it is a go kart then a $99 predator would fit nice on that. Looks like everything else is good. maybe new tires?

Tires are fine. Run those if they're not dry rotted. If they're tube-type tires, you can run them even if they are dry rotted. :D

Not sure who manufactured the kart but those side bars or "nerf bars" are indicative of it once having a fiberglass or plastic car body on it at one time.

I think it's a Fun Wheels, Inc. kart chassis....or close to it. Here's one similar:

Thanks for the help guys. My oldest boy and I are starting to rebuild it. We also have 2 other go karts we have put together.

That sounds like a wild boast. Are you sure about that? :)




In cat years?

That reminds me, how is Sammy doing, Mr. Knowitall? :p

Hey, compare and contrast your kart with the 'Bird' kart in this thread: http://www.diygokarts.com/vb/showthread.php?t=37742

I can say the steering wheels look a lot alike but further examination is next to impossible with those sideways pics. But you both take sideways pics so you're probably from the same town or something. :rolleyes:

You may have found your maker (have you found God?), I mean the manufacturer. Bird Engineering out of Fremont, Nebraska.
