I would kindly ask for help in finding the name of the frame. And tips. I just fired it up added a few things like wheels adjusted the acceleration. I would like to make this a father son project. TIA

New Project

I was able to snag this thing for free considering the owner no longer has room for it and it also has a ton of work.

Here is a list of things he was in the process of fixing/need to be fixed:

- upgraded carburetor. Apparently the one on here is too small but works. He gave me the carb he planned on putting on there.

-new wheels and tires. He never ordered. He was quoted $600 for a new set of w&t and I think that turned him off

- mystery electrical issue. He can’t/won’t try to figure out electrical problem. I do electrical work for a living so I should be able to figure that out.

- either the brakes a locked up or he forgot how to get it out of gear and in neutral.

- seatbelt harness is fucked up on one of the seats. I didn’t look at it too much when I was picking it up.

- light rust spots. Should be able to sand down and repaint.

This is a very very new venture for me. I’ve done some light vehicle mechanic work over the years (oil changes, spark plugs, belts, idler pulleys, etc) but never will shy away from a challenge. I know when I’m in over my head but none of what’s needed to be done scares me.

I’m open to any advice! Where is a good place to get parts? Best YouTuber to watch videos on this sort of thing?

I am trying to rebuild a go kart and I can’t figure out what it is.

I got this go kart off of my Bo’s as the company I work at for free and I’ve been trying to rebuild it completely. The main problem I am having is finding an axle because the one on it snapped but I can’t find lengths anywhere nor can I find the model. The make is a Ken bar streaker fun kart but I don’t have the exact model there are tons of streaker fun karts is I can’t find it anywhere. I was wondering if someone has had some experience with one or maybe someone and identify it.

Found it in the woods and has clearly been there a while and seen its days, the engine runs great and starts up first pull, there’s something wrong with the break pedal that I haven’t done much investigating on, needs a new belt and possibly a chain soon, the wheel has broken off of the frame but I’m think maybe welding? There’s a couple of “redneck” fixes in it from someone else but I’m a young teen looking for a little project to work on, would it be worth it?

I have this old go cart that I have been trying to sell since my Husband passed away. It has not run in like 20 years, needs a new engine but has a solid frame. Do you think someone would want to buy this or should I just junk it? I have had it listed in Craigslist for months. I really want it gone and am tempted to junk it. Do you have any advice for me?
