Paul,
Here's a "stumper" for you....
I have the only 2 versions of this kart that I have ever seen. I bought both here in California.
They looked the most like the n1ke (that's N I K E) karts from New York, so I have called them "Kalifornia Nykes".
No one has ever properly identified these karts, though I have been asking for years. They appear to have been factory built, given the complexity of the tube bending, and the quality of the build.
The black one has undergone a "quickie" restoration and slight modification, and it first appeared in operating order at Adams this year - and again yesterday at Davis. The other one will undergo a more serious re-development, and will appear in its own time as a "Palmini Special", with twin right and left 5-Port, V700 West Bends, and all Palmini gear.
Seems to only take 2 pictures at a time. Here's the Kart as restored...
