Scout SSII Go Kart...

[JlMenz]

Okay, I know its been awhile since anyone has used this thread but i just got back from an auction where i purchased an international scout go cart. Could it be the 8th one? having a hard time trying to figure out how to post a pic.

 

[JlMenz]

Okay got it. The pics not that great and its dirty but i just got home.

Good find.
AFAIK there were 127 made.
There was a serial number sticker on the floor board if it's still there.

i know where there is one for sale, i think he wasnts 2k for it

 

[JlMenz]

WOW, well i would certainly take that for it! LOL. I just got her running really good. One pull she starts right up!
heres a pic after I got her all cleaned up. THanks for the info guys

These things are beyond cool. I couldn't see myself dropping $2k on one though!

 

[JimmieScout]

Not that I know of.
I have plans to do it but business has gotten in the way of my projects.
Mike is supposed to repop all the decals for it.

Did you ever end up making a mold. I'd love to have a mini to go with my life size

 

[Bill USN-1]

The son and I were just talking about that yesterday.
Not done yet but definitely is in the plans to do.
We plan to do one original and another modified to fit a quad so it will look more SSII and ride better than the original go cart frame.

That would be amazing. Is it hard to do? Here's the life size one that I need a mini for.

That thing is cool. How much did it set you back?

These are my babies so I guess I am number 7 full restoration of original 1980 body???

 

[Eason Lilley]

That is sharp!!!

 

[customtronic]

I'd love to have a re-popped body. I'm sure I could fab up the rest. So, if 8 or so have been found, it sure would be nice to know what happened to the other 118 or 119 of them!!!

Thanks! we worked long and hard on this restoration and build. But it was worth it especially since I am able to drive it

I would guess that most over the last 36 years are gone as bodies were fiberglass and kids will be kids meaning rather rough on them. We had only the body with its original label so were free to use our own design with ATV frankensteined to the body. Motor is a 90cc honda electric start.

thank you

 

[the skipper]

not very versed at posting here but a few more; notice the LP?

 

[stroker3]

notice the LP?

..... Sitting on 90cc it must be humorous as hell. I got a good chuckle out of the wheel chock. What a great job.......

Any progress?

Not yet. My business has gotten to the point of consuming all my time.
I can't even look at my projects anymore.
