Found this one for a $150.00 engine is still strong I gave it a little tlc, seat is in great condition until I got overspray on it! Which reminds me we painted it primer gray with wine red accents not finished yet had to put it back together when the kids came by for a quick spin around the block.the rollcage is in pretty good shape also, overall its turned out to be a solid kart and alot of fun! Will post progress soon, have alot of ideas for this one.

Oh crap. ...where are those brain cells when you need them??????

I want to say that is possibly a Manco.....but I can't think of the model..... (which would help).......

I'm sure someone can give you a positive ID.......

Definitely NOT a Manco or a Carter... not a single styling 'Q' seen for either... Im thinking something along the lines of a 'Sears' kart or something maybe...

What's the motorcycle tank for?

Just look at it...to me its awesome! It fits the "theme" of MY kart. I have another engine I hope to be putting in over the winter and will attempt to make the tank functional as well as the exhaust, but right now thats just wishful thinking for now just having a lil fun with it ya know:thumbsup:

I just bolted it down to the rollcage, the speedometer was fully functional on my mini bike so it should work on the kart I'll be doing the electrical this winter so I'll post progress if there is any.

It's cool man, I was just asking from my own artistic point of view. Didn't say I didn't like it. :thumbsup:
