I know this is a bit off topic . . . but I figured you guys would be able to appreciate this! (hope I got it in the right forum )
A buddy of mine owns a golf cart business here in Southern Indiana. I have been building roll cages and doing fabrication for him for the past year or so. One night while BS'ing I opened my fat mouth and said that he needed a golf cart to do advertising/marketing with. . .of course, the first thing I thought was that it would be cool to stuff a 1000cc engine in a cart . A week later he drops off the cart and the engine . Hope you guys enjoy the pics:
Started as a mild mannered Yamaha cart:
First things first; had to get the old engine, axle, & swingarm out:
Out with the old:
And, in with the new:
I started mocking of the chassis. I'm building a custom tubular frame. I'm building custom trailing arms & will be running Porsche 930 CV's/axles:
I'll post more pics as I make progress.
