Default Vintage Racing Go Kart Find !!!!!!


Here my new toy thanks to my good friend and member Matt (aka Fast67velle) by far the best swapmeet /tin and parts hunter i know.
Short on time time tonight (busy weekend ).So only one picture and brief story .Built in 1960 has 2 Clinton engines with a ton of Palmini and other vintage kart speed parts . Plus disc brake /axle driven fuel pump/Dell'orto carbs /real magnesium wheels /racing slicks ,etc .Plus a box of spare vintagespeed parts .
I got the engine moving freely after taking of the chains and some oil in the cylinders ..More info and pictures to come the week. Thanks Again Matt

Here are some pictures once I unloaded it out of my Jeep. Its a super cool vintage Kart with a bunch of neat speed parts. There is no better owner or someone who appreciates something as much as this other than John. Enjoy it!

Very similar to a Dart or Rupp, but it's a Clark Cyclops 440. Still has the name and model embossed on the original seat pad.

There's a paper sticker on the metal seat back stating &quot;Clark Mfg. Co., Conyers, Ga.&quot;
