Vintage Karting Forum

A guy in Wilmington NC posted on craigs list today a FREE running kart. He was moving and could not take it. It was a complete early 60's model with a west bend 580. I could not identify it. It had a half moon seat back tank, drum brake, and a front bumper. Steering wheel set kind of low. I tried to get through to him. He said he would remove the post when it was gone. Not there now and i did not get a picture. I have been having a hard time navigating this site but I think I have solved the problem. The guy said he wanted gone quick. I have daughter that lives about 25 miles from where it was that could have picked it up. Didn't make the cut!

welcome to the club ..its the worst feeling ever ..
It stinks getting beat outta deals ..
usually its someone offers more than orig price... in this case I imagine someone said ill be there in an hour or two with 300.00 or so ....

I had to offer a guy a hundred over his $100 asking price to hold it while my brother swooped
over to pick it up for me, as I was 230 miles away, worked out great. my brother thought I had
SFB but he's an old dog and explaining it to him was futile.
