And now for something completely different.

Golf carts are a popular neighborhood vehicle here in Florida, even though strictly speaking they are not street legal. I picked up this project cart for a song.



The "bones" of this 30+ year old cart - motor, differential, aluminum frame - are in good shape, but the rest not so much. I stripped the hideous homemade "body" from it, cleaned up and repainted the brake and accelerator pedals and linkages and electrical parts, replaced many rusted fasteners with stainless steel, installed new brake shoes and brake cables, new shocks, new batteries, new solenoid, new microswitches, and all new wiring.



I added a temporary seat base and floorboard to test the rolling chassis, which is working well.



I replaced the temporary floorboard with a new one.



Also added an under seat panel and shift knob. The black thing is a charging jack.



More to come, as this is a longer-term project.
