Default Re: I Don't Know What It Is But I Am Going To Restore It:

Parts for these carts are pretty much a no go. I have 10 vintage carts and have gotten crafty with making thing from other carts work within one that I have. Really, most old electric carts operate on the same fundamentals so it's not too hard to get things from "Cart A" to work in "Cart B" It may take some fabrication, though.

My Kelsen is still running great. To give it a bit more pep I run 32v on it rather than the stock 24. It runs good.

The trim pieces and such are actually pretty easy. Hub caps are standard 8 inch baby-moons that can be found online. The trim pieces are actually from a car but I have no idea which one. I measured what I needed and worked the daylights out of Google until I found some chrome that was the same dimensions.

Note that the seat is actually the rear seat for a Jeep Wrangler. The dimensions are nearly perfect for the Kelson and they somewhat have a vintage look to them.
