New here, New project Club Car, Advice?
Hey guys, looks like i hopefully will be in the club again. Its been almost 20 years since ive owned a golf cart. This one oh boy is a project though.
So you know, ill verify the year, but shes an oldie. A friend had it sitting in his garage for a few years and he gave it to me for 300 bucks. Were not sure it even works, but at 300 bucks I couldnt pass. My question to you guys, is where do you buy parts, it needs new seats as the wood is rotted. I need to get new batteries as well, but im not sure if itll even work. I dont mind building it, but it just seemed crazy to pass up a club car for 300 bucks. Any suggestions on where i should start and such, any recommendations of who to buy from. I am located in Miami, fl. and I first timer. |

I was just saying, if I was gonna go from scratch I would start with lithium batteries. You’ll end up getting them anyways. Will need to do tons of research though... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

How do i find out voltage, controller, resistor? This thing is to go around my neighborhood and sometimes bring it with me to disney world to drive around for wilderness. |

Re: New here, New project Club Car, Advice?
When I run into a project like that, I use three (or 4 on a 48v) 12 volt batteries (I always have some laying around) sizes don’t matter, a few jumper cables and see if it even works or at least get an idea if it will stay electric or turn into parts or a gas cart....
that’s my 2cents, but at least you’ll have an idea where your at before throwing money at it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Look just below and to the right of the steering column. There should be a plate and/or a label. Give us the first letter and first 4 numbers. That will tell a lot. Photos help too.

LEMANS forget about lithium for now. You don't even know what you have yet.
