Since these buggies are now pushing 30 years old, it is not unusual to find a mix of parts from various model years on the same machine. Many times parts are salvaged from one cart to get another one going again. If the engine is original, then you would be correct about the year of your second buggy. Compare the starter solenoids, front steering knuckles and rear brake adjusters on the two machines. If they are the same, you have two early (J10 series) carts. If they are different, your second buggy is a later series. Many parts are interchangeable throughout the G1 model range, some are not.
