Vintage Karting Forum

5/6/2017

There are two karts on ebay that probably deserve a look.   There is a  Vintage go cart 800 (that search works) with a Mc7 that is no reserve and appears to be favorably priced (at least as much as I know about that brand. )  There is a hoffco intercepter with a West Bend 610 that has had the full restoration treatment (and is priced accordingly). 

I don't collect that kind of nice kart art.   Back in the day we used to say that if it don't go chrome it (chrome plating was much cheaper!).  If you race or collect karts, these are probably worth a look.

the hoffco is nice but pricey. not unfair if you think about it.

the gk800 is missing the correct rims and has a tiny gas tank .
the seller says mc7 but doesn't show the stamp on the block.
and big bore carb can mean it has the straight bore version mounted.
but a decent start if you want a gk800 for a reasonable price.

I gotta say that Hoffco looks great. I used to like that weird upholstery plastic Hoffco used. TJ
