Hey where do you get your wheel spikes from? Also, those gold wheels (post #187) are vivid, what paint is it?

eBay: 8 Pack Chrome Spike Tire Wheel Hex Lug Nut Press On Covers Car & Truck - 15/16". From California Custom Parts. $15.99.
The paint is Rustoleum Gold.
Thank you for asking.

#22 - This little buggy was a total rebuild. $$$$ Well worth the effort. I like how it turned out.
Sold for $100 of course.

Looks mostly all there, except the engine of course and missing wheel. Can you give me a link for the wheels and tires? I like the stance.

Ever do one that’s just a frame, no wheels, no seat, no steering wheel, etc?

Those pedals look hard to work and not original. Were they hacked up by the previous owner?

I got all of my parts this time from BMI Karts. They were super helpful making sure everything I needed fit appropriately.
The pedals came with the kart. I just added the tape.
These are my next projects. The red one will be the easiest. The Manco will be challenging and expensive. And the big one is my special project. I have some unique ideas for this one. Again, each will be sold for $100 when finished.

Just finished this one. I didn’t do much. The engine was off a previous kart with a governor delete. Tires all held air. Really I just cleaned it up, greased it, and dialed it all in. The kid that wants it was too impatient to wait for me to paint it.

Another one completed. When I started to clean this up it was revealed to ma that this is a Manco White Fox II. I decided to add a few extras to this one.

Finished another one. Nice one when I got it. Simply cleaned it up, new tubes, new drive tire, cleaned up the motor, changed oil and plug. My biggest issue was the carburetor. Because the kart came with a straight pipe, governor delete, and upgraded air filter, I had to clean the carb and drill out the main jet. Tuning the carb taught me a lot. Sold this to a neighbor who is going to give it to his nephew. Also asked me if I could come up with another one. yup, have it in storage and will finish it before snow fall.

Love it but you should have fixed the left spindle and zero’d the toe.

Good eye.

Was the “upgraded air filter” dirty on the inside, in the inlet? Just going with the theme that they’re bug filters…

Good eye.

Better let Denny “eye-molest” each kart before it goes out the door.

Doing great work, Goldwinger
