Description
I found this kart over a year ago in the back of a honda dealership where my friend works at. The kart was in pretty rough shape but it was all there. I didn't see any bends or rewelds on the chassis so I figured this would be a great canidate for a winter project. The kart came with the Mac91A, seat upholstry , and half moon style fuel tank. After purchasing the kart I decided to restore it. I had the chassis blasted and powdercoated. I purchased all new repo GO-POWER wheels from asw since the original turbine wheels were to far gone with rust and cracks. The fuel tank chrome is a little bad but no dents....so I left it alone. The upholstry had no ripps or tears in it so I left it the way it was also. The mac91a was sent out and rebuilt by a friend of mine who has been racing lay-down karts for 40 years. There was a new nos piston and rings installed as well as all new seals. I have a hegar / gem engine mounts that goes along with the sale and the old rear axle assembly. I believe the pictures that were taken explain the rest. The engine has not been mounted or fired yet....I have an extra walbro carb the goes with he kart. There is a mukuni carb that is on the mac now. I was told these engines run the best with this carb set-up.. I have invested alot of time and money into this old kart but I have to unload some of my toys in order to purchase a home soon... I also had to purchase the longer spindles in order to accomodate the go-power wheels. I didn't install the pedals or linkage yet due to transportation reasons. The tires are vintage west german made continentals on the front and indian head carlisles on the rear. I have the clutch and a spare set of azusa pedals. I Hope this ad describes how nice this vintage kart came out. Thanks for looking... Sincerely Robert ....
