Default Pargo cart specs?


I'm supposed to go pick up a (1976?) Pargo electric cart this weekend. I don't know how wide it is, the current owner has it in storage and doesn't know. I was hoping someone can give me an idea so I know how big of a trailer I need to borrow?

Welcome to BGW!!

I don't think it's over 48" wide.

Welcome to the forum Chris...................

I agree with TheNewGuy however if you take a trailer that is 48 inches wide and that has the rails about a foot above the frame all the way around, you may be dissapointed when you cant drive or roll the vehicle in the trailer.

Take a wider trailer to start with or one that doesn't have the rails.

Thanks for the welcome, guys. I can tell already just looking at some of the other posts that I've got a lot to learn about the care and feeding of a vintage Pargo. I think I will enjoy the cart better than I did my attempts at actually playing golf.

I'll see about the larger trailer (farm-tractor sized) and take a couple extra ratchet straps.

Nope, as of noon today, I'm the proud owner of a Pargo Model 544, (sans batteries). I've got some work cut out for me for sure, as some of the electrical looks like it could use replacing. Thank goodness it came with the parts manual.
The body is in fair condition, though there's one spot on the back right fender that has a less than acceptable Bondo job on it, and there's a saucer-sized hole in the roof that I can patch up.
Tires are so-so, but not dry-rotten.
My wife, ever the perfectionist, has already started mentally sizing up the seats for re-upholstery..
It's raining out, so as soon as I get some good (non-liquid) sunshine, I can snap & post a picture or two.

Hey there,

How did you make out with the old pargo. I have one that needs some repair. I think one of the solenoids is bad.

I second that. A PDF of that and any manuals would be great.
