Re: To build or to buy?
Posting deleted, likely sold at that pricing around here. It will be on there in a month with new spraycan paint and cheapo lift for $2500.

Re: To build or to buy?
There is something to be said about the older carts, if you cant buy the part you can make it or make another part work. I have a have a 1992 Yamaha G2 that I built for around 600$. Be happy to share my build info with you. http://www.buggiesgonewild.com/pictu...ictureid=26351

Re: To build or to buy?
How's this for a deal? Could I get rid of the dump bed and put a seat back there? https://nmi.craigslist.org/grd/6237220312.html
Thanks |

Re: To build or to buy?
A guy just offered me a 96 Club car for $1100. It seems to run pretty good once it's warmed up. Doesn't like the cold. He bought it this past spring and had to take out the baffles in the muffler to make it run. It appears to be pretty much all stock. Far from a beauty queen but functional. The previous owner made a wooden bed for it and it has no roof. I've been searching for a Yamaha but they are hard to find in my area unless you want to pay a lot. I'm probably only interested in this because it's just a few miles down the road from me. Any thoughts?

Re: To build or to buy?
You can always get rid of a cart if you don't pay too much, you can find what you want in the mean time.
Personally I don't care for CC they are harder to mod for offroad use, my main use, so I would not be very interested unless I planned to use it in stock form. Would I ride one around the yard I got cheap, well of course I would. |

Re: To build or to buy?
I don't think its worth no 1K, 300-800 depending on condition. Really depends on what cash you need to put into it. The back seat is your call, I mean to make the cart function as a stock cart. If you need to buy a bunch or parts or new seats or whatever, and labor, you end up with a fixed old cart for same cash would have bought you newer one (that was not broken/worn out).
I could have bought a carryall2 for not much more than that a couple years ago, it was pretty good shape for age. Motor seemed a little tired it turned over really easily. Thats one with alum box on back and longer than normal cart. |

Re: To build or to buy?
I think 1500 for the carryall2 it was nice for age nothing really wrong but the engine seemed tired. They are more hassle to outfit for offroad I would have had a lot of money into it lifted with a clone engine, and I didn't like how it sat like a couch felt like I would fly off it on a trail. I really liked the carryall body and length compared to a normal cart. The extra cost to replace the cvt and other things for my use made me turn it down or it would have been a good deal I think. If it would have been an ezgo or yamaha I would have it.
