Restoration '86
Bought this EZGO Marathon in August 2019 for $300. It came with new batteries so it was a decent deal. I decided that I liked the styling of the old school golf cart and that I'd like to restore it / update it a little. And so began the process. Below (if I'm capable) will be the following pics for the restoration. Thank you.

Re: Restoration '86
Battery tray seemed to just have surface rust on it, so that was good.
