1960/61 Simplex Dual Challenger Mark IV (?)

Post by Dwain Parks » Fri Nov 02, 2012 4:46 pm

I have a '60 or 61 Simplex Challenger Mark IV for sale. I not sure exactly the year or the exact model, but you can go to this site and decide for yourself[link2]http://www.kartingarchives.com/[/link2].
It has the cast Simplex wheels, live axel, dual rear brakes (that work), Goodyear tires (original?) what appears to be the original aluminum floor pan, both rear sprokets in good shape, throttle rod to rear throttle cross bar and pivots,pedals and pedal pads good condition.
No apparent breaks or rewelds in chassis.
It has what appears to be a NICE LEFT West Bend 580 engine, but the mount appears to be homemade. This will make a VERY nice kart!!!!!
More pics available on my facebook group page "Vintage Kart Stuff"[link2]http://www.facebook.com/groups/17744135 ... 040636528/[/link2] or just email me or call 336-392-3780. Price is $1750 with the 1 engine.

Your kart is much later than a Mk IV. Dual engine mounts, dual rear brakes with adjustable rear axle and quick change engine mounts located above the rear axle.............MK 16. Good luck getting that $1750 for the kart in this condition.
