Go kart being sold for $100 runs. Sweet find or not? The guy told me that it has an air filter for mudding(the black pipe). Its only one wheel drive doe. I don't know what engine it has. It doesnt look like a techumseh so thats good. It doesn't have suspension well it seems like that which kinda of would suck the steering wheel looks sick though(in my opinion)

That is some kind of old Manco. (good Karts)
Need new front wheels and tires.
I would ditch that ugly roll cage and make it a nice yard kart.

That will be pretty cool though taking off the roll-cage and making it a yard-kart.

It's a clone engine of some kind, maybe a Subaru or even the infamous Pred. Good find, snatch it up to keep or fix up and flip but there's not much money to be made unless it's Christmas.

I saw a lot of rehabbed karts for sale on CL in December; spiffy enough to be gifted...

Are the Subaru engines any good?

The engine looks like a hemi because of the stock air box set up and the muffler

Look at it only if you're interested.

Subarus are... pretty good I'd say, but I am reminded almost every day on this forum that Subaru replacement parts cost an arm and two legs.

Go look at it so we can quit speculating on what the engine is! :D
Or contact the seller and ask him.

And if you're feeling lucky, try waving $80 cash under the seller's nose and see if he'll take that.

And it has a snorkel! ...which you mentioned before but not with that term. I think it's a bit too long and might cause the engine to struggle a bit.

You gonna buy it?

If you need a "Stock Air Box" There should be plenty around here. Free if you pay shipping.
