Early 60’s EzGo
3 Attachment(s)
I recently acquired an electric ezgo from an uncle that passed. I’d like to restore it but I’m needing some direction. My best guess is it’s 1962-1964 and I’m unsure of the model. I’d like to find a manual for it and some direction/suggestions to find parts. It has a 36V motor that works however, I’m not sure if it works properly. I’d like to use lithium batteries when finished. My experience is with gas carts and I know very little about electrics. Due to the condition this is going to be a substantial project but I’m in no hurry to complete. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Neat cart....gonna be fun. ScottyB probably has everything you need and he's a sponsor. I'm sure someone will be along soon to help suggest to you how to spend your money :)
Also, Welcome to the forum. |
Re: Early 60’s EzGo
All of these old carts were basically set up the exact same way: A battery pack, a set of resistors, and a bunch of solenoids that all come together for speed control. For the most part, all "resistor" carts have the same basic wiring configurations. Post up as you go along. I am confident that we'll be able to walk you through whatever you find.

You're probably going to have more money in it than you'll ever get out of it so plan on keeping and enjoying it. That's a project for sure! Have fun, parts may be hard to find.

Parts availability may initially look bleak but it's actually ok. You just have to be willing to get creative and adapt things beyond their intended use. IE, retrofit parts from other carts and such. Again, these old electric carts all operated on the same basic principals. As such, it's not overly difficult to swap parts between them. Basic metal fabrication skills and a welder sure makes things easier. |

Looks pretty solid. I have seen much newer carts in worse shape.

Re: Early 60’s EzGo
First thing I would do is evaluate the condition of the frame and what it would take to do any needed repairs before I spent money on anything else.
