Good information. I have being trying to i.d. my second kart for a number of years. I'm pretty sure it was a Simplex, after thinking for decades I had a Missile Kart. I learned from the forum, Missile karts were squared-tube frame, my kart was not.
My kart's front section, rear seat back forward, matches well to the MKII. The rear section, rear seat back reward, matched up well to the MKIV. The kart had perforated scrub brake. Best estimate on the model year would be 1959.
The throttle linkage photo/schematic shown for the MKII, definitely confirms my kart was not a MKII.
