Re: Is or Isn't - Did or Didn't

The other cool thing this artist and his company did was to create our exploded drawings for parts catalogs. I would give them a prototype that included most of the parts and drawings of the other stuff. We would get the finished work back in a couple of days. It would include the bullets and arrows...

Re: Is or Isn't - Did or Didn't

Back in the day we had a free lance artist that worked for Fox. He could create a drawing like this in short order. If you look at some of the Fox literature you'll see the same things you mention. The 1961 satellite seat Mak-Kart is a good example. Most of the kart was the real thing but the seat w...

Re: Terrible News - APS closes

Bob, Those Clinton guys are having too much fun. I'm not sure the engines are Clinton any longer since they have ball and needle bearings, big carbs, etc. My problem is finding another Fox dead axle kart with a Clinton to fix up.

Re: wanted: mcculloch oem gas tank

Mike, I had one for sale at TBO. It belongs to my fab guy. He found it and then restored it to like new condition including a leak test after he filled all of the pin holes that are common. The price will be high but it's nicer than the ones I've seen on e-bay that go for as much as an engine costs....
