In need of Lancer help

Have just picked up a Lancer kart and as you can see from the pix requires a little work!
The kart is fitted with Fox Lemans wheels and a Bendix brake.
Hoping someone may be able to assist with the following information:
1. Year and model?
2. Correct wheelbase as the rear has been extended.
3. Would it originally have been fitted with Fox pedals, if so, mounted on top of front axle or through front bumper rail as with a Dart?
4. Engine mount, what type and mounted inside chassis rails or straddling side rail?
5. Colour? Doesn't seem to be any traces of Lancer orange, may have been black or red.
6. Are rubber blocks for chassis still available.
Regards,
Don Tomich

1. 1964 three models the delux "GT", the standard "LANCER" & the easy to own "500" made by Rupp in Mansfield OH. Azusa 12" steering wheel, Rupp Turbine Rims 4" Front 5" rear.
2. Call or email me for wheel base. I'll have to measure it (402-690-0696 or virgil.love@offutt.af.mil)
3. Fox pedals mounted throught a tube welded on top the main frame rail just behind the front axle.
4. Standard Dart A-Bone Swing mounts available from Robron. Stradles the frame rail/bearing hanger.
5. Ad Color was Magenta
6. I have reproduction rubber mounts. You will need three or four of them (two for the frame and one or two for the swing mount/s)
