Replace Marathon metal body?
Just curious if it was possible to replace the all metal marathon body on an 86 ezgo gasser with the newer fiberglass/plastic ones.
It should help shed a little weight and update the styling a bit. :) |

Re: Replace Marathon metal body?
well, I'd like to at least replace the old top with the newer style with the handles built in.
My body is in great shape, freshy painted in a nascar theme. But, the new plastic bodies have to save about 50lbs I'd think. :) So, how about just the top/canopy? |

Re: Replace Marathon metal body?
No, the frames are totally different. But anythings possible with a little cutting and welding!

Re: Replace Marathon metal body?
I have an 89 Marathon with a newer top. The front support is from the new top and just relocated mounting holes. The rear is from a Marathon, the top sits a little high in the front.

Presidentially Engineered is more politically correct
