Re: Vintage Racing Go Kart Find !!!!!!
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!

Re: Vintage Racing Go Kart Find !!!!!!
Holy cow! Direct drive - no clutches! My old twin engine (drum brake) go-kart is sitting back in N.E. Ohio garage of my childhood best bud's garage. We were partners on it and had the MOST fun possible with that old ride. Every Saturday our parents took turns hauling us to the Canfield Fairgrounds in one of our station wagons for a day full of go-kart hot rodding...ALL day long!!! Good times!!

Re: Vintage Racing Go Kart Find !!!!!!
It was built to go fast for sure. Aluminum sprockets and axle shaft. The "mufflers" are Palmini "tuned" headers!
