That kart is a mess. I hope buyer is aware of all the deficiencies. Wheels missing studs and nuts,Seat for a narrow hoop and on and on.

I think we all saw that...that was/is a 1500/2000 dollar kart at best...
either the buyer didn't have a clue...or just to much $$$$ to care,,,true POS IMO

We've all had this seller on our radar for months. Some of the things he sells will not even function. He constantly tries to pass off old saw motors as real kart engines. Steer clear! Ted
goog lord. that is amazing how much was paid.
almost worth building a decent show kart and selling it on bat.
then at least i'd be able to afford gas to go to a couple of events this year.

gary,
DO NOT CONSIDER SELLING YOUR BABY.
if you want i'll put together a complete package every single part needed for a bat restoration.
maybe a gokart 800 dual with mc five motors gem exhaust and motor mount combo and gem exhausts.
a mint set of azusa rims new rubber all around perfect steering wheel and a already painted and g0ld leaf numbered front panel.
i'll polish all the aluminum parts and build the motors.
i'll drag it over your house and let you get all the pretty work done , extra chrome nice paint perfect upholstery.
then i'll stop over one day and we can build it up.
then we'll sell it and split any profit.
you know as well as i do there won't be any but we'd be able to get bragging rights for selling a kart for "big money" like some of our buddies.
