Re: 1st Kart Resto, A Clark..
Thanks for the notes guys, glad you appreciate the goofy retro paint job. I still have the origional tie rod ends. They are a ball joint style with a rubber sleeve covering them.

I picked this frame up for a $100 bucks at a swap meet because it looked like the one I had as a kid. Turned out to be a Clarke (I think). It was very rough and figured the frame was nothing special...

Re: 1968 (?) Rupp A Bone for sale
Hello,
Surfing around and found you ad for the Rupp frame. Does it happen to still be avialable with the parts?? I am in Charlotte, so could pick up. I am getting into vintage Karts so let me know if you have any for sale.
Tks
Tom

Clark Wheels, Any Info - Need one more
I bought an old frame that had these 5" front wheels. They are 2 piece and the back of one is busted up, looking for the inside piece if anyone has one. Also interested in any info. Curious if they are aluminum or manganese

What Frame is This??
Guys, First time posting. I bought this kart frame a few month back at a swap meet. Would love to know who manufactured it and approximately what year. From some of the stuff I have seen on the internet, it seems like it may be a Rupp. Its set up for a single engine, has a disk brake on the right si...
