Hi to everyone.

scott ., id say its vintage for sure .. historic karts are becoming pretty popular ..if you ask me thats a real nice one .. it would look nice with pair of west bends ,clintons .. P.s. when you get it home atleast weld another paddle on it . or cut the one thats there off and put some real brakes on it .. i ride an old mono kart with pair p/p motors it has scrub brakes and i swear when i jam them on it makes me go faster ..

Try looking for 1960-61 info on a

Drag-N-Fly
Patvin Equipment Co.
Dept LGK
PO Box 13
Anaheim, Calf.

I have a 1959 mag & the steering wheel matches so it may be a later version.

If not the logo is super cool!
