That cart is really clean. Revolution has a new windshield for $107 I think, to start. Lots of options for seat covers around $100 or less, or have an upholstery shop do a really nice fancy seat for a couple notes. You can get new 18" OD tires with new wheels for well under $500. You should have regenerative braking on that cart, I'm not sure why you wouldn't. I have no idea if you can use Regen with lithium, so I'll let someone that knows chime in on that, but a new controller ($600) will allow you the programmability to adjust the regen however you want. Again, check with compatibility with lithium. Your wires could probably use a refresh when you do the batteries. I don't know about the 110v inverter, so again I'll let others respond there. It really is a nice cart, it wouldn't take much money to refresh it.
