I would like to see some support where he welded the warrior frame to the cart frame above the steering column. Also the steering wheel looks like it would be in a funky possition.
$1000 NO WAY IN HELL.

Oh yeah I would. My dad drag races a 67fastback and ever few years he has to get new seats and seat belts every 2 years. So I would throw 2drag racing seats in it and 5point harnesses.

It does not go 70. He said he has an engine that would make the kart go 70. You would die in that kart going 70 anyway. The first dip in the trail at 70 and you would pogo stick head over heals.
The stearing wheel is also up a mile high. It would be like driving a harley with ape hangers. The work looks hacky if you ask me. Look how he welded the steering column up? I bet the rest is the same way. Look it over good. Some people just hack this stuff togather.

@big head yeah I don't really know about the steering wheel in there. You think there's anyway to lower it a little or something

Yeah right now it's got a 6.5th engine on it with some mods. I wouldn't want to go 70 in that thing mo madder how much u pay me.

Yah it would be an easy fix. But looking at how he welded the steering column in I would say it all needs to be looked over. Take your dad with you. If he races cars he will spot a hack job fast.

This has me scratching me head and wondering how the rest was done. Should atleast cut off the extra sticking out of the side. I can see that slicing your knee cap off.

Yeah he will be going. If I can get it for kinda cheap I would be more then happy to fix the steering.

Also it is a two seater with the wheel now in the middle. But both pedals are on one side still?????

Yeah looks like he just welded the front end of the go kart and chopped the old end off

Now if the kart wasnt welded together crappy I'm sure this would be a great go kart

So your body is going to be in the middle while you feet are cramped to one side?
Post a pic of what your trading. I would not give him any money for this kart

I'm doing this from my iPhone right now so I can't post pics. When I get on desk top I'll post some
I wouldn't. if the engine has a removed governor it could cause serious damage to itself or you. along with that the body looks badly thrown together. also it appears that driving it would be cumbersome and awkward. overall it just seems like it wouldn't be a fun drive and that it is a hazard just by running.
