Recently bought this for my grandson and I as a project. Had something similar when I was a kid. Trying to identify the make and model year any help would be greatly appreciated appreciated.

It's a Dart for sure, most likely an A Bone, though Rupp built a number of lower production similar karts. I'm guessing 61 to 64. Somewhere along about 65, Rupp went to a narrow hoop on the A Bone. Maybe someone knows more. I've never owned a Rupp, though I raced alongside a lot of them in the early days. Ted

Hi Ron;
I have one just like it. I was told it was a '63.

More pics would help. Steering upright braces were added. Are there holes in the top of the number panel? How about the back end? Seat to rear cross member distance?
