I just got back from a trip to the hills south of Pittsburgh where I picked up a fairly complete Mac Kart. Everything is there except for tank, upholstery, and an original steering wheel. Not sure what model it is, but there are no provisions for a motor mount (no big deal) and it is not one of the double frame types. I'm guessing that it is an R-1, or R-200. You could have knocked me over with a feather when he carted out the magnesium wheels. I'm going to have a million questions soon. Two of the rims are chunked out on the bead. Can this be fixed? Next, are Tri Stars identical in dimensions. Or to say what I'm thinking, can you bolt half of one to half of the other? I'm thinking that under a coat of yellow paint, it won't matter much.
Or would it be a better idea to Buy four Tri stars, and trade the mags to one of you purists out there? Thanks in advance.

Make that F-1, or R-200.

mike can you post some pics of that mac.i am restoreing a r-200.thanks john byrne

What I've got now is a rusty frame. There's really not much to see. If however there is any detal you'd like to see, let me know.

Mike, go ahead and post the rusty frame pics. We are used to rusty kart frames (and like them for what they will become)....Ron

I had problems downloading the pictures I took so I put them on my facebook page. I'm probably the only Mike Reller on there. Also pictures of the Bantam on there. sorry you may have to wade through other stuff.
