Little Project Im Picking Up.

[COPPERHEAD85]

Its a Carter Cart a friend had bought for his son but never got around to putting it back together.$200!

13 horse Honda motor!Has 2 piece Aluminum wheels that go with it not the ones that are on it.All the parts are there,he just pulled it down to paint it.

Should be a real hoot!

I have a 10 horse that im gunna build into a lil buggie like that after i get a little cash!

 

[COPPERHEAD85]

Sounds good!
I couldnt pass this up,I had been Eyeballin it in his shop for years lol.

I love it.

I wouldn't mind building one of those. Only a little more powerful and a tad larger. I have access to some decent trails, the owners probably wouldn't like me tearing them up with a truck but they wouldn't mind something like that. Keeps the grass down and the trails clear. I can barely find my way around up there now that no one rides them. I'll never have the time or money to do that though, not for a few years. By then I wont be living where I am.

Thanks Koda,Its a little larger than what it looks.
His son is 6' and it fit him pretty good.
Hey Im 45 its never to late to get a Go cart!

put something with a little more power in there like a 600cc sport bike engine. then youll have yourself a sweet shifter kart

Slap a 750 or larger 4 stroke in that thing !

im really liking the independent rear suspension setup! surely most of those parts came off of a quad or something originally, right?

Nope,thats the way it was built from Carter Carts.
It's stiil at his shop,kinda way down on my list at the moment but I had to snag it while I could.
My to do list...

1. Find a LS center section for the 81 F-100 so I can put 3.73 gears in it.
2. Go pick up the 460 and another C-6 from the S.Y. (next sat morning)
3. put exhaust on the 85 and nut and bolt it,clean up some wires so i can put it to good use this fall.Probably slap a Dana 35 under it (after the 28 implodes) and leave it that way.
4. Find a first gen Ranger body and frame for the 460/C-6/205/60 build.

lucky bast**d, I've always wanted a gokart!

well, I have one technically, but its only a lawn mower =P

 

[COPPERHEAD85]

Got his bad boy striped down and painted today....before...

After...

I used the pre mixed Dupli-Color from the zone,works pretty good but painting tubing sucks,gotta get another Qt. tomm. to finish it.

nice!! $200 aint bad for a go cart, i wanna build one too, it's on the list of stuff i want, but it's kinda far down, hopefully in a few years!

 

[COPPERHEAD85]

Thanks,I kinda put back $20 a week to buy stuff like this when I find it.

lookin good-the kid's gonna have a hoot with it...if he can get you out of it.

Looks similar to a cart a friend of mine picked up a while back. We dropped in a 400cc Honda motor and rode it HARD... Now it knocks pretty bad, so it sits..
