Went to see the kart. It’s in good shape. Even has the original torque converter cover on it. The guy had it ready for a test drive which was unexpected. Kart had a lot of torque. I was surprised. Idles fine. Started in first pull. It is tempting. He also had a Manco Baja with an IC 5hp (not original engine), a yerfdog 3203, and some 2 seater Carter buggy frame.
The Manco would round off my collection wish list. Decisions decisions.
