I know there is some good people here that can tell me what the heck this thing is. I got the cash and i might buy it. Can I get any help/suggestions/info please?

I called the kid and he said he would take $100. Do you think this would be a good deal?

yeah i think you should go for it. Its a racing frame and 2 engines. Just the frame is probably worth the 100. And dont you have tons of parts engines? you should be able to fix up those 2 in no time and be riding pretty quickly. Not to mention if you fix it up and clean it up mice, it may be worth a pretty penny to the right buyer.

Id get it none the less. Good deal.

Im kinda worried that there are cheap front tires on it, no floorboard, or peddles.

few things to add, front tires, floor pan, etc, but not a big deal.

that's an excellent deal! 2 HONDA engines! i would consider paying $100 for one GX160 a very good price! on top of that its a race frame, so it should handle much better than a normal yard kart. you also get hydraulic disk brakes, another plus. and other than the front tires everything looks to be made with nice quality parts! buy it ASAP!

BUY IT NOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Looks like an old Margay with a dopey seat. If it is a Margay, and he has the original 6 spoke wheels, get them too. Dem worff $$$$$$$!!!

But the thing is it is missing so much stuff and it looks like someone was using it as a yard cart. I dont even think there is a rear brake caliper. I texted him what happened to the floor pan, front tires, and other crap and no replies. I might pass on this one but then ill probably regret not getting it one day.

1. Pedals are there. Plus they're cheap if you're not going for a spot-on resto.
2. Two (2) genuine Honda engines.
3. ?Margay? frame.
4. It's not the best deal I've ever seen on a racing kart, but it's worth more than $100.

Looks like a steal. Go for it.

No they are not

Beat to crap. Dont really care

?Margay? frame.

Abused frame missing parts

i agree. grab that. then you could sell one of the engines and have a free kart+motor.

EDIT: i can see pedals there.

 

[jeremybentham]

Pedals ARE there. So is the master cylinder and what looks like a Hegar Sta-Tru sprocket hub. Dems worff $$$$, too. If I didn't have to work tomorrow, I'd be drivin' my a$$ to O-HI-O.

The pedals ARE most definitely, without a doubt, pictured. They are upside down L shaped pedals and not the Azusa ones you're probably picturing.
