good deal or run....
 

ok guys i found a decent cc electric cart all stock. all it says on the tag is 500 bucks. has cahrger, and needs new batterys. it does have 6 6 volt trojans in it. i never checked the date on it, due to it being sitting outside for a while. i got the serial number and it comes to be a 1992. its got a pretty blue glittery body and the seats look good and top looks good. no hole seen. tires.....dry rotten and flat. oh and no lights, or windshield. but it has a rear flap on the back. tell me what youall think......

sorry about the for sale tag with the number on it. i only posted that to try to show the body color, that realy didint come out very good.

it's a resistor coil cart..... so if you want a project to convert to solid state and put new batteries in etc, then it is a good choice.

Re: good deal or run....
 

well its a 1992 single solenoid resistor cart for 500 bucks.....charger is worth 1/2 that so if all it needs is batteries...............offer them 400 see if they bite.....but at 500 you can just part it out and get your money back on just the charger and motor then the rest is gravy or as scotty mentioned a good cart for conversion............i don,t think you,ll lose any money by buying it................................8)

I think it depends on what your goals are. New tires probably around $200, if you get new wheels too probably $4-500. Around $700 for new bats. So you are in it for around $1400 to $1800 and you still do not know if it runs. I think you could find a newer running cart for around 2k. Good example is me, I have a year 2000 DS for sale with new tires and wheels, new controller and solenoid, new f/r switch, high speed motor, new roof, hd leaf springs, new brakes, and I do not think I will see anything over $2200:mrgreen:

For comparison....

I bought my 1983 CC DS for $480.00 with year old batteries and it runs. To date I have replaced:

2 rims and tires = 10 bucks they were take offs (used) at my local CC dealer/shop
1 solenoid = 20.00 same place
1 5 panel rear view mirror = 28.00
4 hub caps take offs (used) = free

So if you plan on all new electronics, lift kit, new rims-tires and the like offer 250.00
and take it from there.
