Default New to me

This is my first post to this forum and it's about my first golf cart. We have been into RVing for a few years now and I have always wanted a golf cart. Well this weekend the owners of the camp ground that we frequent gave us one! I will be picking it up on Saturday and bringing it home. As you can imagine "free" means not running. So far I know that I need batteries, tires, leaf spring ( one of the front ones is broken) and something is wrong with the steering the wheels will turn to the right but I just hear a clicking when I turn it left. And of course as much BLING as Mama will allow!!!

I have been doing some searches for parts but I'm not sure what model it is. The plate says
EZ Go A2294
SN 784449
So I am guessing it's a 94 but I keep seeing 94.5 and older or newer. Can someone tell me by the SN or PN what I need to look for?

I am looking forward to the build and will post some pics when I get it home.

Serial no. indicates 1994 Marathon. Can you post a picture of the battery compartment? You will have to make a few more posts before the site will allow you to post a picture. More than likely a controller cart----which is good. Does the cart look like the the one pictured below?

Welcome, you're going to enjoy it here!

You probably have a Marathon. Do you have a single seat back or separate backs?

Post some pics, we love pics!

Yep I actually found the Ezgo site with the serial number thing right after I posts this. It's definitely a marathon. I thought it was in really bad shape until I started browsing these forums and saw what others started with! I am a forum nut when I get a new project so I will probably be on here a lot in the next few months.

Welcome papa. A few weeks ago I was give two carts and in a week I went from knowing NOTHING about carts to having one running and doing a full on frame off rebuild on the other, thanks to the guys on BGW.

Check out my build below, you will see how far you can go in a short period of time. One bit of advice I might give is if your cart is in real bad shape see if you can't pic up a donor cart of same vintage. Should be able to find one for free or a couple hundred bucks. You will be amazed at all the junk carts you see now that you are looking. Ask might get free supplies.

Have fun and good luck

Man, that's a beater. Not worth anything. Probabaly have to put 6 or 7 thou into it just to make it run. Another 2 or 3 to make it look good. However, Since I'm basically a nice guy, I'll take it off your hands and free you of the burden upon which you are about to embark.

And, uh, welcome. You'll enjoy it.
