The Homelite Kart engines

Big Bob! Jeff Troy is THE MAN for the KL-100! His engines are drop dead gorgeous, as are his beautiful "Rose Red" karts. Be sure to email him. He may be able to help with the 82's and 92's. The KL-95 looks identical to the KL-100, except for the number on the "tit shroud" sticker. The 82's were typical light metallic saw blue, as were the early 92's. The last 92's were white, though I've never seen a white one in person. Somebody help this fella! TJ

If you look on the upper row right you will see an actual honest-to-God KL95. All correct parts and rebuilt. So they do exist!

Beautiful stuff, Frank! I've never seen a red E-65! The Super 58 (or 61), the Mac 10 and that gorgeous KL95-I covet them! Thanks. Ted

Speaking of Rare or not so common kart engines from back when, there is a Standun on eBay, lots of good pics too. Tom

Well maybe some-one should be collecting those pic's and then start a online data base and also offer a few deatails about the engine ...............

Hi, Frank,

Long time, my friend. GREAT looking stuff.

Have you or anyone else ever seen a KR-100 in the metal? I have three KL-100 engines, but never have seen the right-hand model anywhere.

Any chance you would trace the plug tit decal from the 95 for me? I can have them cut in vinyl if anyone needs them. I have the 100 stuff and am working on the 92. The 95 graphic would be a nice addition.

McBob -- those phones and the address are good. I have too many kart images to search through for good engine shots right now. Two magazine deadlines in the next week. I'll be happy to send detail shots as soon as my load frees up a bit.

Tap personal anytime to jefftroy@aol.com

Warmest regards,

The Homelite Kart engines
