Hi Richard. If this is something that is for sale Jump on it!! Neat rear engine conversion to use a gearbox. Reposition the Kendick pipe though. Phil.

yeah whoever modded that must have iron arms.
the gearbox setup is usually found on older karts.
was it me i'd buy if not too much money.
the seat cover is kinda rare it's a sunburst that i've seen few times.
frame looks like a fairly easy fix too.

Thanks for the replies guys. So it is-was a panther x, just cut up,interesting. I bought it about 4 years ago at a swap meet for 400, he was asking 800. It came with the old style belt starter, he said it was a open 101 set up for dirt(I changed to slicks). I changed to a gas carb and it feels strong. They dont have a vintage class where I live so its mostley an around the parking lot kart now. I wish I had the skills to put it back stock but I dont. Thanks again.
