My 2019 build-off entry
Several ideas changed throughout the build, but it's finished after many sparks thrown, scraped knuckles, and a few cuss words. I built the frame out of two full size bed frames, engine came from a concession kart I traded for, stripped, and traded away, wheels and tires are from a couple lawn tractors I stripped down, pedals, drum brake, sprocket and steering wheel were scavenged from other karts. Only things I paid cash for are the pillow block bearings, the steel stock to build the rear axle, chain, and centrifugal clutch, and everything else was scrap steel.
