Hopefully the link will work, can't figure out how to copy his picture from the site.

Link does not work. You have failed. You are not savvy.
Well dang, if I get it I'll post pictures of it upon arrival, it's a two seater with suspension and live axle, it almost looks like a yerf dog and a manco duece got together and had a lovechild, it's interesting for sure.

If you decide to buy it, ask the seller what it is and if he doesn’t know, ask him why the **** not?
If it has two seats and suspension, it’s a big, heavy and stupid buggy.
I shall ask, exactly as instructed! It does look buggy-ish, but lightweight like a yard kart, it looks like a hybrid of the two, I guess it's possibly home made, but if so it was quality work, roll cage looks to be barrowed from something else.

Well whaddya know, link works now on the almighty PC.
Didn't work on android phone or iPad, two distinct and different platforms.
It's a Manco kart, no suspension. See if you can get it for less. Haggling is a fine art, practiced by so many few.
Roll cage looks original, just repainted and missing the rear strut supports.
It's like a model 485, something along these lines:

I got two karts mixed up in my head, was looking at another as well that looked like it had atv suspension, good to know it's a decent kart and I'll try a bit harder to get it, working on the barter system, so haggling is deep into the works. From the sounds of things I may be getting 3 mystery karts with a truck load of parts and engines in another deal, so if I get this one and those 3, I'll have 7 karts total and a drift trike/chopper build, haven't decided yet.

Will keep that in mind, ironically enough my dingo cracked in the same place and was fixed at some point, manco thing?

Looks like you won't be the only manco hoarder around here, the deal I mentioned about the three mystery karts sounds like it is going to work out, he sent pictures, one is a custom buggy frame for a crosskart type, one is the same model dingo you and I have been building, and the third looks manco as well, I should be able to get those pictures posted if you guys would like to see?

If they worked, the red one is the one I'm not sure about.

The engines that are coming with the lot start at 600cc, and go all the way up to 1150cc, so if I use one of those (heavy mods of course) it would be a monster!

Well you’re just all kinds of messed up and confused, ain’tcha?
Yeah, Manco (Critter, Fox II, etc.) model 415. One wheel peel.
That one, Smerft85, you might fix up with a $99 Rotaderp and flip it quickly for a tidy profit.

First thought I had with that one is my kids, I've got a honda 5.5hp that still has the goverer, unless I can find a smaller engine, it will probably stick around a while.
As far as being confused and a little messy in the head, that's every day for me, I always have 10x more going on than I can keep up with, guilty as charged!
