Nice kart zeeman, it's rusty but should clean up decent enuff to be a good rider. What direction are you going to go with it? Are you gonna put on a Briggs flatty, clone, or a old karting motor like a Clinton or McCulloch?
It's funny because I got a free kart last spring that sat outside in tall grass through the -30 C canadian winters, and your kart looks even rustier. Tho to a Canadain like me that kart is barely rusty compared to some of the stuff I am used to.

I know. It is a rust bucket, but I like a challenge. The engine plate is so close to the seat, I think a Briggs would fit on it best. With a Tecumseh, I would have to mount the tank somewhere else. I am leaning toward a 5hp flatty, possibly hopped up a little. I will also have to cut the metal sides off and either slant them out, or make a different design. My rear end won't fit in the space provided by the original manufacturer. Discrimination for sure! That's one reason I was hoping to find out what brand it is- I want to know if it would be OK to cut on it etc. I do have an old McCulouch chain saw from 1980, but I looked into turning it into a powerplant, and it did not seem very feasible. I'm open to suggestions. Thanks.
I would like to see what they look like. I have 3 wheels that match for the Kart, but I don't know what was on it originally. Are they 4 inchers? Thanks. I'll let you know. I might have something you need if I decide your wheels would work, we could trade. Check out my for sale stuff from a while back to see if you need anything I have.
