Barn Find! Chevy Truck go-kart!
 

I've been trying to research this go-kart but haven't found much. They seem to be fairly rare. I found this website and thought you would enjoy seeing this old go-kart. The manufacturer is F.W. & Associates Mini Cars. They made a lot of the old Shriner go-karts. It's possible this could have been used in parades by Shriners but who knows. My father-in-law found it and gave it to me for my 40th birthday :lol:
It came with the numbers matching drivetrain :lol: It was missing a few parts but my father-in-law sourced the missing parts and rebuilt the engine. I just need to drop the engine back in it and go for a cruise! :) I'm on the fence about cleaning it up or just leaving the body in barn find condition.

Here is my father-in-law in his Lil Red Express go-kart which is the same with slightly different body. He's about 5' 10".

That is totally cool, I would at least have to wash it, but I want one too.

Re: Barn Find! Chevy Truck go-kart!
 

What a cool rig. That thing got a big block Briggs in it? :lol:

Re: Barn Find! Chevy Truck go-kart!
 

That is VERY COOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Did he find it in the Charlotte area? I live here also, so welcome to the site :metal:. What kind of cars/trucks do you have? I wish I lived out in the country, my boy and I would have go carts and trails made... Can't do that in a HOA neighborhood.

Re: Barn Find! Chevy Truck go-kart!
 

Thanks. My father-in-law lives in the Washington DC area and I think he found it up there. I added my Chevys to my signature. I don't have any old trucks, but love our 2002 Tahoe :chevy:

Needs a cooler chest trailer.

Re: Barn Find! Chevy Truck go-kart!
 

Seriously jealous right now. I even have a cbr600 engine waiting for the right go-kart home too.

Re: Barn Find! Chevy Truck go-kart!
 

I have seen a few of these over the years although most of them aren't in that good of shape. I love it!

Here are some pictures of my sons Chevy Step Van Go Cart .. Thinking about having it wrapped .. Thinks does approx. 35 mph .:metal:

"I don't have any old trucks", You just happen to have the most beautiful and the most iconic GM muscle car of all time..... 1970 Chevelle SS454 :metal: Bravo Sir, Bravo!

I would clean the go cart up, when you get it put back together. I think it would look great.

Re: Barn Find! Chevy Truck go-kart!
 

Thanks, here's my Chevelle
