Conned into rebuilding an old Bonanza

Dave rom Salkum, WA
Made a deal to rebuild a bonanza and i get the go cart. Did not know what I was getting into. Working on identification now. I think is a BC 1000. Trying to figure out the wheel mfg so I can find rear brake and sprockets. The front end has sliding fork suspension, headlight bracket and fold down handle bars. I don't think the front end is original.

Front end is for sure not right, an off something else.

Lucky you:laugh: The front end and wheels are off something else.

We aren't going for an original restoration and I'm sure not buying a new front end.

anybody know what the wheels and front end are from?

Rear wheel and front end look like maybe Kawasaki KV75, the front wheel has a Honda z50 look to it, hard to tell without better pics, real junkyard dawg thats for sure!! good luck!

Im thinking the fork is kv as well, the top half looks almost like the fork on the kv i had. The only difference is mine was a 71, so it had the outside springs
