    Dune Cat

    64 fairlaine, I believe that some had just a chain type clutch........ usually the "small tire" variety, i believe. I love the Comet setup tho, the speed, power, and ability of the setup to move even "fat ol' dad" (me) around at a good clip with a 5 horse is great! Mine also has the comet...

    Vintage Slot cars.........

    I've been into ho scale slots for around 20 years, the majority of them bought dirt cheap at yard sales / flea markets/ thrift stores. I had amassed a large collection about 15 years ago.... around 50 afx / t jets etc, then sold the entire collection and "got out of it". Wouldn't ya know it...

    Barn find Gilson Kart

    Pretty neat, a tub style or "monocoque" construction........... no frame per se. In sports racing cars in the 1960's building cars with an aluminum skin/tub was brand new technology. Cool cart, i'd love to get my hands on one at a price I could afford.

    id on this kart?

    Any idea on age/model? Near me for $135.... engine is toast. Rear scuff brakes seem (to me at least) to indicate an older model.......... Price seems pretty good..............

    VW Powered F1 Replica

    I raced formula vees in autocross for about 20 years. It's fairly easy to find a basket case / roller fairly cheap. Would be a much faster project that way. The one I owned the longest was a 1964 Autodynamics Mk1. Set some FTD times with that sucka, and humiliated the local corvette club...

    how old are you?

    43 and living a second childhood vicariously (sp?) via my 9 year old daughter. Had a couple carts as a kid and never got a single one of em' running,........ dad was absent. So nowadays, the carts are for her, though I test drive them vigorously to test them for safety, first.:laugh:
