Help ID This Kart?

[hardcorps]

Seller says it's a Thunder Kart. Is it? Or? Any help apprcciated.

 

[panchothedog]

Don't know. Does that make a difference of it is or it isn't. If you like it and the price is right why wouldn't you buy it.

All yard karts back then were pretty generic. If the price is right, buy it.

 

[hardcorps]

I plan to buy it this evening. Knowing the make would help me find similar karts and see what people have done with them. I have a plan but I like to see other people's work for ideas and inspiration.
Thanks.

Here are some better pics. Needs TLC but seems serviceable.

IF $50 is right then the price was right.

 

[Denny]

I would have tore off my pocket reaching for my wallet!

 

[BaconBitRacing]

$50???? You got a heck of steal! Most of us have to pay double that for something that doesn't have rust holes.

Seller also has a Coleman mini bike for sale.

 

[hardcorps]

Tonight's deal should be better. Stay tuned.............

For the record this seems to be a Carter 2606 kart.

Tonight's deal fell through. On the way to pick up the $100 built 212 Predator motor when the seller texted that the motor was "stolen".

 

[panchothedog]

Don't feel bad. Some guys $100 built engine might really have been some guys problematic piece of junk. Hard to go wrong with a brand new one. And then if you build it, you know exactly what you've got. BTW, I'm with Denny and BaconBit
you got a Killer deal for $50.

I'm very happy with the kart.
My boss, who owes me $150 for a Gravely zero turn mower I sold him, is supposed to be bringing me a Yerf Dog 3020 that he got new when he was a kid. It's been sitting in his dad's barn. Should be lots of kart action in the near future around here.

 

[panchothedog]

Having two is always better than having just one. Hope he comes through for you.

 

[Denny]

They multiply like tribbles!

 

[hardcorps]

Tonight's acquisition. Crap, now I need two motors. This one was $75 but is in much better shape than the other one.
Can anyone ID this one? I know it's not important but I'd like to know.
Are you not entertained?

 

[hardcorps]

Bacon, do I have a Streaker here?

 

[BaconBitRacing]

Yep that's a Ken-Bar Streaker. Tough karts. What's going on with the wire brushes? Bubba cut the back hoop off for some reason.

I am entertained, thank you.
