Bowman RM250 shifter kart, big dellorto carb, motor is free with good compression and decent general condition other than that the brake disks and pads need done and doesn't run yet, it has a weak spark but plug lead is melted flat so that's a good place to start.
I have a kart my son left, it has a pretty fresh kt100 engine (proline frame), I have an extra yz80 engine that I think is going into it. I also have yz125's but the frame probably won't like a 250 (I have a spare cr250 motor). The 80 would be the best combination for handling.

Agreed! Why have it and not use it, just what would be the point:noidea: I will look up the earlier vid, gotta love them porkers! They're all :cool: And nearly all appreciating in value with exception of the 924 and the modern suv's, the panamera is an oddball but in the right spec with no miles will do ok in the long run:thumb:

Back when Panteras were coming over (in this case 1971) we used to call local parts houses and repair shops to see if they had a water pump for one or could put a water pump on for us. Lost them all. (It was powered by the "Cleveland" version of a Ford 351.
